It’s not enough to do the right thing in your own backyard.
Our ethical supplier sourcing policy puts every link in the supply chain in the spotlight for a transparent view of providers and manufacturers upholding highest ethical standards across fabric, labour, human rights, fair working conditions and environmental protection.
We look for suppliers that have a commitment to implementing policies and practices consistent with our own. What does that mean? We work with companies who put people first and support environmental and social sustainability.
Total Image Group is committed to providing its customers with quality products that are ethically produced. As a business we have a moral responsibility in respecting and promoting human rights and addressing and eradicating Modern Slavery.
We do this by ensuring our suppliers and manufacturers across our supply chain uphold the highest ethical labour standards, human rights, fair working conditions and environment protection.
We recognise our corporate and social responsibilities reside as much in our supply chain as in our own activities. We continually seek to ensure that the products and services we source are ethically produced.
Our chosen preferred suppliers are deeply committed to sourcing products and services in an ethically responsible manner.
Our key suppliers adhere to all the international manufacturing standards including:
For many textiles, the story begins with cotton and the fields where it’s grown.
Key challenges to achieving a more sustainable cotton supply include climate change, resource depletion, and traceability.
We are working closely with our suppliers to increase visibility into where cotton is sourced and grown for our TIG Brand apparel and locally sourced textile products, as well as trying to build a better understanding of conditions in key cotton sourcing regions globally and the sustainability risks arising in the face of climate change.
This research and collaboration will help guide TIG’s approach to support cotton sustainability improvements in the future.
According to Textile Exchange, polyester is the most used fiber in the world and accounts for roughly half of the fiber market.
While polyester is manmade, it is becoming more feasible to create recycled polyester fiber from pre or post consumer plastic waste.
As a leader in the Australian Uniform Textiles space, Total Image Group aspires to help create a more circular economy, moving away from a Take-Make-Dispose approach, to one where resources are preserved in production, and the materials are ultimately recycled back into the economic stream.
Our goal is to increase the use of recycled polyester fiber in TIG-produced apparel and locally sourced products, whilst maintaining the quality our customers expect and reducing environmental impact within our supply chain.
Durability and longevity don’t need to come with a heavy production footprint. It feels good to recycle, right? But closing the loop means choosing products that are not only sustainable, but created from recycled or repurposed materials.
Our sustainable fabric choices include:
