We're striving to make the most responsible jeans out there, by using materials and processes that are kind to our planet. Our customers, employees, community and environment are always considered in each of our decisions.
We believe that sustainability and circularity start at the design stage. We utilize circular design strategy and sustainable manufacturing processes to make responsible jeans that last. Our goal? That our jeans will never end up in a landfill. We are working on a program to facilitate a closed loop. What does this mean? When you are done wearing your EDWIN USA Jeans, we encourage you to send them back to us and we will close the loop by giving them new life.
Our team consists of people with different ideas, strengths, interests and backgrounds working collaboratively toward a common purpose. We respect and encourage each other and show gratitude in our words and actions. And we have a ton of fun, because at the end of the day, we love what we do and we love this planet.
EDWIN USA'S 2020 IMPACT REPORT SUMMARIZES OUR SUSTAINABILITY EFFORTS. IT COVERS OUR SUPPLY CHAIN, MATERIALS, FACTORIES, AND THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF OUR JEANS PRODUCTION. WE BELIEVE THAT ASSESSING OUR IMPACT IS ESSENTIAL TO SETTING A SUSTAINABILITY POLICY. MEASURING OUR IMPACT AND BEING TRANSPARENT ABOUT THE RESULTS KEEPS US ACCOUNTABLE, ALLOWS US TO MEASURE OUR PROGRESS, AND PUSHES US TO IMPROVE OUR SUSTAINABLE AND CIRCULAR EFFORTS.
LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT (LCA) IS A METHODOLOGY FOR ASSESSING THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS OF A PRODUCT, IN OUR CASE THE LIFE CYCLE OF A EDWIN USA JEANS. WE MEASURE THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT FROM RAW MATERIAL AND PROCESSING (CRADLE), MANUFACTURING TO DISTRIBUTION. THE GOAL OF AN LCA IS TO PROVIDE THE GROUNDWORK FOR SUSTAINABILITY OR CSR STRATEGY WITHIN A COMPANY TO FACILITATE BETTER SUSTAINABLE DECISIONS. FOR THE 2019 LCA OF EDWIN USA, WE FOCUSED ON MEASURING THE WATER, ENERGY AND CO2 IMPACT OF OUR JEANS. THE METHODOLOGY OF LCAS DONE BY EDWIN USA FOLLOWS THE ISO 14040 STANDARD.
In 2015, the United Nations adopted a plan that would eliminate extreme poverty, fight inequality and injustice and protect our planet. At the core of this plan are the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which outline how that can be achieved by 2030. Governments worldwide are already working toward these goals, and we at EDWIN USA are too. We utilize the SDGs to put sustainability at the heart of our business strategy, measure and manage our impact, report and communicate the results and set future goals. Below we outline the SDGs that are most relevant to us as a business and brand.
Here at EDWIN USA the concept of circularity starts at the design stage. That’s why we design garments that are made to last but can also be recycled in the future.
