BEWUST EN VERANTWOORD

SUSTAINABILITY THROUGH QUALITY

Sustainability means durability. If you manufacture products that last an exceptionally long time, you will end up using far fewer valuable resources. We don't just mean fabrics and yarns – the effects are far-reaching, reducing power consumption, packaging material and CO2 emissions. 

The durability of BP® products is an integral part of our sustainability concept and is therefore characteristic of all of our workwear collections, spanning all occupations. With our long-standing expertise, a sophisticated quality management system and our commitment to delivering products of the highest calibre, we don't hesitate to roll up our (exceptionally durable) sleeves and get to work.

DUURZAAMHEID DOOR TRANSPARANTIE

FAIRANTWOORDELIJKHEID DRAGEN 

Gerenommeerde instituten controleren of we onze duurzame verantwoordelijkheid in de textielketen nemen. In ons Duurzaamheidsverslag doen wij verslag van onze activiteiten, onze successen en onze verbeterpunten. 

Onze klanten, medewerkers, leveranciers en andere betrokkenen verwachten van ons dat wij doelen stellen op het gebied van duurzaamheid, onze prestaties laten meten en maatregelen treffen om nog duurzamer te worden. Vanuit deze doelstelling bieden wij transparantie over onze vooruitgang en onze uitdagingen volgens de gerenommeerde internationale standaard (Global Reporting Initiative, GRI).

QUALITY THROUGH PASSION

HIGHLY MOTIVATED AND MAD ABOUT QUALITY 

We put our whole heart into every garment that leaves our factory. As our customers know, you can only achieve such excellent work quality with passionate, motivated individuals. For its staff of 110 based in the heart of Cologne, BP® offers an attractive employee benefits package, including flexible working models, free access to over 100 gyms across the country, work-study options and numerous training opportunities.

These include international vocational trainings with work placements at partner sites abroad, sabbaticals, external counselling and much more. At BP® we are receptive to new ideas and strive to improve every day. We work hard, but we play hard too. And that balance is important to staying motivated.

FAIRWEAR

In 2010, BP® was the first German supplier of workwear to become a member of the FAIR WEAR FOUNDATION . The multi-stakeholder initiative aims to improve working conditions for workers in the international textile industry.

It performs regular inspections of both our internal processes and our production partners in order to ensure that better working conditions are being maintained. BP® has already been awarded the status “Leader” eleven times in succession. 

PARTNERSHIP FOR SUSTAINABLE TEXTILES

BP® is a member of the Partnership for Sustainable Textiles. This governmental initiative of the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development aims to ensure social, ecological and economical standards throughout the production and supply chain in the clothing industry. In addition, BP® plays an active role in the work group “Social standards and living wages”.

OEKO-TEX®

BP® responsibility also means that BP® products are harmless in terms of human ecology. That is why all BP® products are tested for harmful substances and are certified in accordance with Standard 100 by Oeko-Tex®.

You can find out whether your selected item is OEKO-TEX® certified in the product description, which you can find in the webshop. You can also contact us directly for more information.

OEKO-TEX® STeP

Enkele leveranciers en producenten zijn gecertificeerd door STeP. STeP analyseert uitgebreid alle relevante bedrijfsactiviteiten, zoals het gebruik van chemicaliën, belasting van het milieu, veilige arbeidsomstandigheden, het nemen van maatschappelijke verantwoordelijkheid en kwaliteitsmanagement.
