Sustainability
OUR SUSTAINABLE COMMITMENTS
At WNU, we are all about making effortlessly elegant shirts for all women. But as a business, we want to be more than just a product.
B Corp Certification
What is it and why?
It means that WNU is closer to becoming the brand we desire to be at our core. From the choice of production methods, raw materials and working conditions to our environmental footprint and engagement in the community.
Our certification is the result of the collective work at WNU that started in February 2020. To read more about B Corp and view our assessment please have a look here.
Our production process
From raw materials to effortless shirting
Over 85% of our collection is made in Portugal, where we have built solid relationships, from the outset, with our suppliers. Our Portuguese factories have predominantly female staff and uphold the highest standard of working ethics, including pay and rights.
Upholding our ethical standards
We have a code of conduct in place for all external suppliers, holding everyone to contract when it comes to our ethical policies.
We pay regular visits to our factories to ensure that the standards set in WNU’s code of conduct are being met. As well as this, we make sure that all of our fabric mills and manufacturers have been audited to allow full transparency into their sourcing and operational policies.
