Production using sustainable practices is more necessary today than ever before. Climate change reminds us of this fact every day. The damage that has been inflicted on the planet is so extensive, that action needs to be taken immediately.
This is the main reason why most garment companies have turned to sustainable production and they state that in the near future the cotton they will use will have to be produced exclusively through sustainable farming practices.
Thrakika Ekkokkistiria has had long-standing and innovative activity in this field. We were the first ginning mill to produce organic cotton and adopted sustainable farming practices. We were also the first to produce energy from biomass, as well as the first to receive ISO 14001 certification. In 1997, the company received the first prize from the Hellenic Ministry of Development for its environmental strategies.
Since 2015, the company's environmental strategy is focused on the program "Certified Sustainable Fibermax".
At the same time, Thrakika Ekkokkistiria participates in all the industry conferences about sustainability issues taking place worldwide. Together with all other famous brands, the company takes part in formulating a view about how the industry should proceed in order to halt the destruction of the planet.
