Always strive to improve
Despite global crises, we can do better together

During the past years with climate crisis after crisis we have seen numerous global setbacks, compared to the goals defined at COP 26 in 2021. Based on these global setbacks, we continue striving to minimize the impacts on the environment and climate of our operations every step of the way.

Investment in generating renewable energy, choosing more climate friendly transport options, efforts to reduce waste and water consumption while managing our environmental impacts according to ISO 14001 are some of the steps we are taking to do our part.

Spectre An Giang – Setting the standard

Opened in 2022

An Giang factory is Spectre’s first purpose built factory so we set out to make it our golden standard. As such we are certifying the building to meet LEED Gold criteria. For instance, the factory design and choice of materials ensure a reduction of energy consumption of almost 20% compared with basic level and it has been prioritized to use low emitting materials for the construction.

The factory is equipped with EV-ready outlets for electric cars and bikes that promote the use of green vehicles, meaning our employees can charge their electric cars and bikes at the factory parking.

Reducing our impact on the climate

We are working to reduce emissions each year.

Rooftop solar system allows us to produce almost 50% of electricity by ourselves, thereby reducing GHG emissions by 1 600 tons of CO2 annually.

We have detailed tracking of electricity use to keep reducing our impact.

REDUCE, RE-USE, RECYCLE​

unused resources

Through the use of latest cutting technologies, we optimize material utilization, and we strive to find solutions allowing us to move up the waste treatment hierarchy. We participate in innovative recycling projects to help find the solution for the waste that we can’t recycle yet. We are committed to use recycled and responsibly sourced packaging.

Going where our partners go

Together we can do even more

We work with various partners and customers to find new solutions to the challenges faced by the garment industry. We wish to play an active and relevant role in transforming the outdoor garment industry into the mindset of the circular economy.

After analyzing potential environment management systems, we decided to and have managed to certify all our factories according to the environmental management system ISO14001 which is a logical strategic step and a natural extension of our existing quality management system, ISO9001.
