Fair Wear Foundation (FWF) is an independent organization that works with apparel brands, garment workers and textile industry influencers to improve labor conditions in garment factories.

As a FWF member, Stanley/Stella organizes third-party audits to assess human rights risks and monitor HRDD progress in factories. CAPs are reviewed and remediated in collaboration with factory management until they can be closed. Stanley/Stella has been a member of FWF since 2012.

Textile Exchange is a global non-profit organization that works closely with its members to drive industry transformation in preferred fibers, integrity and standards, and responsible supply networks.

As a member since 2012, Stanley/Stella participates in various initiatives of Textile Exchange, including the annual Material Change Index survey and the Sustainable Cotton and Polyester Challenges, which are part of the Corporate Fiber and Material Benchmark Survey. These tools map the progress towards more sustainable sourcing at the raw material level.

The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is the leading worldwide standard for organic cotton. Based on both ecological and social criteria, it guarantees that cotton is organically grown without the use of genetically modified seeds or hazardous chemicals.

It also ensures traceability from post-harvesting of the raw material to the final customer, including transaction certificates at every stage of production. We offer GOTS-certified products by Control Union CU 819434, each labelled individually.

The Global Recycled Standard (GRS) is the world's leading standard for recycled textiles. The standard applies to the full supply chain and addresses traceability, environmental principles, social requirements, chemical content, and labelling. All the recycled cotton, recycled polyester, and recycled nylon we use is GRS certified by Control Union CU 819434.

Standard 100 by OEKO-TEX® is one of the world's best-known standards for assessing harmful substances in fabrics. Our certification confirms that Stanley/Stella products contain no chemical substances that are harmful to human health and the environment and guarantees that they comply with the EU REACH regulation. Standard 100 also prohibits certain potentially harmful substances even where these are not yet legally banned.

Stanley/Stella is 'PETA-Approved', which means that we do not conduct or commission any animal tests on ingredients, formulations, or finished products and pledge never to do so. Our products are made from 100% vegan materials with no ingredients of animal origin, ensuring that no harm is caused to animals.
