Concept brands

Some brands do not certify their products one by one. They have the company certified, and that proof is public, audited and dated. Others have nothing to put forward at company level, but their products carry attestations that we recorded one by one. We group them here for a simple reason: their proof is not read in the same place as on an ordinary page of this catalogue, where the label covers the material or the factory. The two do not replace one another, and we do not mix them.

The proof covers the company

A third party audited the company, published a score and dated its certification. That proof says nothing about any particular product, and we do not pass it off as such.

Cotopaxi

Some of this brand’s pieces belong to the Del Día range. Cotopaxi describes it as assembled in the Philippines from leftover fabric, with each colourway put together by the person who makes the bag. That is what the brand states, and we report it as such. What we can see for ourselves: every item is unique, and its colourway will not come back.

Sproutworld

Its manufacturing site is SMETA audited. Its pencil is planted at the end of its life and comes from a Polish workshop, therefore European. The brand states that it uses wood from FSC or PEFC certified forests; that last point we have not verified with any certifying body.

Karst

Its stone paper contains no plant fibre at all: it is calcium carbonate bound with resin. No forestry standard can therefore apply to it, and that is the nature of the material, not a gap.

The proof covers the products

For these brands we hold no company certification we could put forward: a third-party audit, a published score, a dated recertification. What we can prove was recorded product by product, on the brand’s pages, and is read on each page.

Jack Wolfskin

What we can prove about this brand is read on its products. Its two down vests are filled with down certified to the Responsible Down Standard, recorded on the brand’s pages on 25 August 2026, with certificate number CU 882660 for the men’s fit.

Helly Hansen

What we can prove about this brand is read on its product. The Paramount softshell jacket carries the bluesign® PRODUCT mark, which covers the finished product and not the fabric alone.

The commitment is published by the brand

For these brands we hold neither a company certification nor third-party proof on the products. What they put forward, they publish themselves: we report it by attributing it to them, and we say what we have not verified.
