Our commitment to the environment and society
At Carrington Textiles we focus on enhancing fabric performance through continuous development in advanced technologies. These innovative techniques and processes are also carefully implemented with respect for the environment. This approach runs through all aspects of our textile manufacturing including fibre selection, weaving, dyeing, and finishing. Sustainability is a key factor in this. So, our R&D department and production engineers constantly work towards the minimisation of waste and toxic substances. For example, the introduction of greener alternatives in raw materials and greater use of renewable energy sources. Guaranteeing adequate working conditions throughout our supply chain is also vital for the company, that’s why we publish our Modern Slavery statement to which our suppliers adhere to.
