Environmental Statement
Our Fabrics Division is committed to minimising our environmental footprint, by adopting an active and responsible approach to designing and manufacturing our products as well as operating our facilities.
We will examine all the stages of an end product's lifecycle when designing new products. We will endeavour to continuously improve the total environmental impact of our products, by using a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of consumer end products as an ecological evaluation tool.
Critical aspects:
- We are committed to sound science
- Life Cycle Assessments are our benchmark
- The durability of our products represents the cornerstone of our approach
Our founders, Bill and Vieve Gore, understood the importance of respecting the environment as well as promoting this attitude. We are proud to continue this tradition.
