OUR SUSTAINABILITY STORY
WE ARE A GOTS CERTIFIED ORGANIC BRAND

A bonnie mob garment is not only fun to wear or to look at but is made in a way that is kinder to the environment and the people who have had a hand in making it.

In April 2022 we are so proud to announce that we have become certified both by The Soil Association and Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) licence number DK30844. We have always produced GOTS products in accredited factories, but now we are also GOTS certified as a brand.

In a fashion world overflowing with ‘greenwashing’ we hope that this gives you the added confidence that we are giving you the GOLD STANDARD of Organic and Sustainable clothes!

WHAT DOES GOTS MEAN?

GOTS is The Global Organic Textile Standard, it is the leading Global standard for textiles & clothing made from organic fibres. It includes strict environmental and social criteria for the whole supply chain, to maintain the integrity & traceability of the finished product.

By having a GOTS licence (Ref DK30844) we are now Audited regularly by The Soil Association, we can show the GOTS label on our hangtags. It confirms that we commit to the highest level in environmental and social standards from seed to hanger.

Under GOTS our factories are audited regularly to check that workers are provided with a safe and clean environment and are paid a living wage (which means either the national standard or industry benchmark, whichever is higher).

GREAT KNITS

By using ‘fully-fashioned’ machines to make our baby and children’s knits, we reduce waste as we only knit the shape of the garment. We don’t ‘cut and sew’, meaning there are no bits of excess fabric thrown away. The knitting takes longer and is of a much better quality, making it better for the environment as we reduce waste and our clothes last longer.

Today, The bonnie mob’s knitwear production takes place in Hong Kong and China as we firmly believe this is where we can find the best quality. The machines and technicians we have access to are some of the most advanced and highly trained in the world.

THE FUTURE

As a brand we are committed to sustainability and for us this is an ongoing process. We are continually learning and adapting our designs and processes to ensure they are made in the most environmentally efficient way. Where we have choices, we always put sustainability first. Like with many things in life, it’s definitely not black or white. Sustainability comes in many shades of Green. It’s a huge journey for a small business like ours, but we have already achieved so much and are committed to continue on this path. We hope that other brands are inspired by our story and make changes to becoming more sustainable, if we can do it, why can't the bigger brands?
