Focusing on the product, adapting to your needs.
We are continuously striving to improve our know-how through our relationships with our clients. Fashion is constantly evolving, and we believe that each new production, new season, new prototype, is an opportunity for us to enrich our expertise and put it at the service of the garments we manufacture.
Diversification
The care we take in making each product is the core of our business model. Every effort we make is channeled towards making sure brand identity and style requirements are correctly translated into the garment. This has allowed us to develop a wide expertise in formalwear and outwear for men and women and across all types of sleeved pieces and trousers.
Every garment has a specific style, fit and feel that make up the unique selling point of a brand. Our role is to engineer these intangible requirements into manufacturable features. Brands do well when they manage to propose unique, recognizable products that retain the end consumer. This is why since our founding, we have always looked to diversify our technical expertise to deliver tailored services to each fashion brand we work with.
For us, sustaining the diversity of products we manufacture is essential. This gives us the ability to better navigate an industry where trends constantly evolve season after season. More so, once we capture the essence of our client’s brand identity, it allows us to further contribute to the elaboration of their collections, focusing on several products to build a harmonious offer.
Flexibility
Premium luxury, mass market, small independant brands, premium access: we don’t put any limits as to who we work for. We adapt to your needs. Our team of modelists, stylists and purchasing agents work to provide the best possible product at your target price. We are able to control every step that leads to the product being in your stores: design, sourcing, purchasing, assembly, logistics… In that sense, we are always able to find just the right compromise to make your production program fit both your allocated budget and your quality standard.
Our philosophy is simple: build partnerships with brands and have a long term impact. This is why it is essential to us to remain flexible in our approach towards production quantities with new clients. We also understand established brands may need this flexibility when trying out a new design. Our client’s growth and success is in our primary interest, which is why we invest in all types of production quantities and sample collections.
Quality & Ethics
As an EU company registered in the stock market, we respond to the highest social, technical environmental and financial audit requirements. We apply this same exigency outside of the EU throughout our production network in Asia and North Africa.
Social audits SA8000
Our people are the fabric of each of our projects. CONTED is a syndicated company, we take pride in having an employee driven policy.
We ensure all factories we work with respond to strict requirements that guarantee people behind sewing machines are valued and considered.
Quality audits ISO 9001
It is important to us to make sure we are continually improving our performance, our commitment to delivering quality and our ability to meet client expectations. For this reason, we carry out regular quality management system audits under the ISO standards.
ICS / BSCI
Most importantly, we ensure all our partners and our factories respond to ICS and BSCI standards. Such audits are performed at random, without notice. We maintain since 2018 our “Premium Factory” status in both social and technical evaluations.
Driving Sustainable Fashion
We are determined to be actors of change in the garment industry when it comes to environmental impact. The garment and textile sector is responsible for over 20% of global clean water pollution and 10% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Moreover, in a fast-fashion driven consumption, the industry is notoriously known for its poor recycling management all across the supply chain. We are taking action.
We are OEKO-TEX®
