Sustainability at the Core: How Adiantes is Leading Ethical Leather Goods Production
TN
At Adiantes, sustainability isn’t just a trend—it’s at the heart of everything we do. From product design to production practices, we are committed to making a positive impact on the environment. This dedication has earned us a place as a proud participant of the UN Global Compact, aligning our goals with global initiatives for sustainability and responsible production.
Ethical Sourcing and Transparent Supply Chains
One of the key aspects of our sustainability efforts is ethical sourcing. We work with both local and international leather suppliers and partners, including ECCO Leather, Perlinger Leder, and Weinheimer Leder, ensuring the finest quality materials. Many of these partners are leaders in responsible production, and their sustainable practices align with our own values of transparency and ethics.
We also ensure that a large portion of our leather portfolio is certified under leading sustainability standards, such as the Leather Working Group (LWG), OEKOTEX, and other certifications that emphasize responsible leather sourcing. This guarantees that our leather goods not only meet the highest standards of quality, but also adhere to strict environmental and social guidelines.
Our production facility in Thailand embodies transparency, where every process is carefully monitored. By maintaining control over our production lines, we ensure that our sustainability promises are upheld every step of the way. From reducing waste to fair labor practices, our facility reflects our core values of responsibility and ethical craftsmanship.
Upcycled and Recycled Materials for a Better Future
We believe that sustainability goes hand-in-hand with innovation. That’s why we are continuously evaluating upcycled materials to create leather goods and non-leather alternatives that are not only luxurious but also environmentally responsible. Our focus on upcycled leather scrap filling and recycled PET fibers is just the beginning of our journey toward a circular economy, where nothing goes to waste and every material is given new life.
Through partnerships with key industry players and a focus on sustainable solutions, Adiantes is not only reducing its carbon footprint but also paving the way for other businesses to follow suit.
At Adiantes, sustainability is more than a commitment—it's integral to how we operate. From ethically sourced materials to innovative use of upcycled resources, we strive to make a lasting positive impact.
Looking Forward
Adiantes has been featured as a case study in the UNGC’s Moving Business Forward Faster: 2024 Trends & Insights Report, highlighting our work in ensuring fair living wages. This commitment has not only helped us reduce inequalities but has also strengthened our supply chain by fostering ethical labor practices within Thailand’s leather goods sector.
