Buyer’s Guide

Sustainable Clothing Manufacturers: The Ultimate Guide For Fashion Brands

Sustainable clothing is becoming more and more popular in the fashion industry. But what exactly are sustainable clothing manufacturers, and why should fashion brands consider working with them? Sustainable clothing manufacturers are those that produce clothing using sustainable materials and methods. This guide will provide you with everything you need to know about working with sustainable clothing manufacturers, from the basics of sustainable clothing to the process of starting a sustainable clothing line. So without further ado, let's get started!

1. What Is Sustainable Clothing?

Sustainable clothing is made from natural, renewable materials that are grown without the use of harmful chemicals or pesticides. The production of sustainable clothing also follows ethical guidelines that protect workers and the environment.

As more consumers become aware of the environmental and social impacts of the fashion industry, sustainable fashion is becoming an increasingly popular option.

In addition to being better for the environment, sustainable fashion is also often more ethical than traditional fast fashion. Sustainable fashion brands typically pay their workers fairly and provide safer working conditions.

2. Fabric Used in Sustainable Clothing

The sustainable clothing guide wouldn’t be complete without mentioning the fabrics used. Sustainable materials are made from sources that have a low impact on the environment. The most common materials used in sustainable clothing are the following:

Organic Cotton

Organic cotton is one of the most popular sustainable materials used in clothing. It’s made from natural fibers that are grown without the use of harmful chemicals and pesticides. Organic cotton is also biodegradable, making it a sustainable choice for clothing.

Hemp

Hemp fabric is durable and absorbent, making it a sustainable choice for clothing. It is made from the stalk of the hemp plant and can be used to make a variety of clothing items, including shirts, pants, and even dresses.

Linen

Linen is a sustainable fabric made from the fibers of the flax plant. It is strong and durable, making it an excellent choice for clothing that will be worn often. It is also absorbent and breathes well, making it a comfortable fabric to wear in warm weather.

Bamboo

Bamboo is one of the most sustainable fabrics out there. It grows quickly and doesn’t require a lot of water or pesticides to thrive. Bamboo fabric is also soft, breathable, and durable, making it a great choice for clothing. In addition, bamboo is naturally antibacterial, so it can help to prevent odor-causing bacteria from building up on your clothes.

Recycled Polyester

Recycled polyester is a type of sustainable fabric made from post-consumer plastic bottles. The bottles are collected, cleaned, and shredded into small pellets. This fabric is often used to make athletic wear, as it is lightweight and breathable.

3. Sustainable Clothing vs. Eco-friendly Clothing

Most people know that it’s important to be eco-friendly. One of the best ways to do this is to choose sustainable clothing options. Unfortunately, many people don’t know the difference between sustainable and eco-friendly clothing.

Sustainable clothing is made from materials that can be renewable, such as organic cotton or bamboo. Eco-friendly clothing, on the other hand, is made from recycled materials. It’s important to note that both sustainable and environmentally friendly clothing options are good for the environment.

However, sustainable clothing is generally considered to be the better option because it doesn’t rely on finite resources. In other words, sustainable clothing is a more efficient use of resources and has a smaller environmental impact overall.

4. Sustainable Clothing Certification & Standards

Many certifications and standards exist to help guide companies and consumers alike in making more sustainable choices. Some of the most well-known sustainable clothing certifications include:

GOTS

The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is the leading certification for organic textile products including clothing, home textiles, and personal care products. GOTS certification covers the entire supply chain from raw materials to the final product and includes standards for environmental and social responsibility.

Bluesign

The Bluesign standard is a comprehensive system that assesses the environmental impact of textile production and ensures that harmful chemicals are not used in the manufacturing process. The Bluesign certification is given to products that meet a set of strict environmental and social criteria.

Fairtrade International

The Fairtrade International certification is given to products that meet a set of standards for fair labor and sustainable production. The Fairtrade certification covers a wide range of products including food, flowers, and clothing.

5. 4 Ways to Support Sustainable Fashion

The goal of sustainable fashion is to reduce the negative environmental and social impact of the fashion industry while promoting human rights. Here are four ways you can support sustainable fashion:

#1 Shop Secondhand

Buying secondhand clothing is a great way to extend the life of existing garments and prevent them from ending up in landfills. When shopping secondhand, be sure to look for quality items that will stand the test of time.

#2 Choose Natural Fibers

Natural fibers like cotton and wool are more environmentally friendly than synthetic fibers like polyester and nylon. They’re also biodegradable, so they won’t end up in landfills after you’re finished with them.

#3 Support Fair Trade Practices

Fairtrade-certified clothing means that the workers who made your clothes were paid a fair wage and worked in safe conditions. Look for fair trade labels when shopping for new clothing or do some research to find brands that support fair trade practices.

#4 Repair and Care for Your Garments

Caring for your clothing properly will help them last longer. Mend holes and stains as soon as they occur, and store your clothes in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.

Following these simple tips will help you get more use out of your clothes and prevent them from ending up in landfills prematurely.

7. Costs and Fees Involve When Starting a Clothing Line

As you start planning your sustainable clothing line, it’s important to keep costs in mind. Depending on the type of clothing you want to produce, many different fees and costs may be involved. Here are some common costs and fees associated with starting a sustainable clothing line:

Fabric Costs

Depending on the type of fabric you use, fabric costs can vary widely. If you’re looking to use sustainable materials like organic cotton or bamboo, expect to pay more for fabric than if you were using conventional materials.

Sample Costs

Before you start production, you’ll need to create prototypes or samples of your clothing line. These samples can be expensive to produce, so make sure to factor in these costs when creating your budget.

Production Costs

Once you’ve finalized your designs and samples, it’s time to start production. Production costs will vary depending on the type of clothing you’re producing, the quantities you’re ordering, and the manufacturer you’re working with.

  • Marketing and advertising
  • Packaging and shipping

  • Employee salaries and benefits

8. The Process of Working With a Manufacturer: From Concept to Delivery

Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to work with sustainable apparel manufacturing companies, from coming up with your fashion brand concept to getting your garments delivered.

Planning Your Brand Concept

The first step in working with any manufacturer is to have a clear understanding of your fashion brand concept. This means having a strong grasp of your target market, what kind of garments you want to produce, your branding, and your budget. This will also include the materials and sustainable practices that are important to you and your brand.

Sourcing Materials

The next step is to source the materials you’ll need to produce your garments. This includes sustainable fabrics, trims, and any other specialty items.

Sample-Making

Once you have your materials, the next step is to create samples of your garments. This step is important to ensure that your garments will turn out the way you want them to. It is recommended to create at least one sample per design so that you can try them on and get a feel for the fit, drape, and overall look of the garment.

Feedback and Revisions

After you’ve received your samples, it’s important to check them well and send feedback to your manufacturer. This way, they can make the necessary revisions to your samples before going into production.

Production

Once everything has been finalized, it’s time for production! Depending on the size of your order, it can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months to produce your garments. Make sure to keep clear communication with your manufacturer to ensure that everything is going according to plan.

Delivery

Once your garments are complete, it’s time for delivery! Your manufacturer will ship your garments to you, and you can start selling them to your customers.

9. What to Look for When Choosing Clothing Manufacturers

As the fashion industry continues to grow, an increasing number of sustainable clothing manufacturing companies are beginning to offer different options. Here are a few things to keep in mind when looking for sustainable apparel production companies:

Certification

Perhaps the most important thing to look for is whether the clothing manufacturer is certified. There are a few different sustainable certification bodies, such as the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) and the Fairtrade Foundation.

These certifications ensure that the manufacturer meets certain standards in terms of sustainability, labor rights, and environmental impact.

Location

If the manufacturer is based in a country with strong environmental and labor laws, that’s a good sign. Working with a local sustainable clothing manufacturer is also a good way to reduce your carbon footprint.

Transparency

It’s also important to work with ethical clothing manufacturers that are transparent about their practices. A good clothing manufacturer will be happy to answer any questions you have about their practices. They should also be able to provide you with detailed information about their supply chain.

Pricing

Of course, sustainable clothing manufacturers tend to be more expensive than those that are not. However, the benefits of working with a sustainable manufacturer are well worth the extra cost.
