TEKO's ECO Commitment.
#1 ACTIONS, NOT WORDS
We approach sustainability as a balancing act. It's not possible to produce a product without using energy and natural resources, so it's our job to minimize our footprint at every stage.
#2 ENERGY
Teko is powered by renewable energy at the office and the factory. We transport all raw materials and finished product by boat rather than air.
#3 MATERIALS
We use merino wool from South America, recycled polyester made from plastic drinks bottles and recycled polyamide in the production of our socks.
#4 CHLORINE-FREE
Unlike our competitor's the shrink-proofing process we use for our merino wool, to give it the comfort and performance we are looking for, excludes chlorine and is Bluesign® certified that's why we call it M3RINO.XC. The Bluesign® system is the solution for a sustainable textile production. It eliminates harmful substances right from the beginning of the manufacturing process and sets and controls standards for an environmentally friendly and safe production.
#5 NON-TOXIC DYES
No allergens, carcinogens, heavy metals or formaldehyde are used in our dyes. All of our products meet the OekoTex100 standard.
#6 MADE IN THE USA & ITALY
All of our socks are knitted in the USA and Italy to the very highest environmental and socially responsible standards.
#7 SOURCING
All raw materials except the merino wool that we use are sourced within 300km of our factories, minimising the energy used to transport it to our factories.
#8 MINIMAL PACKAGING
All the materials we use for packaging are both recycled or recyclable. We do not use cardboard chip boxes as this uses up too much space and increases the overall amount of space to be shipped.
#9 DURABILITY
True sustainability means allowing for the whole product lifecycle, including disposal. Our socks are some of the most durable on the market, which means they need to be replaced less often.
#10 OUTDOOR STEWARDSHIP
We support The Conservation Alliance in the USA and The John Muir Trust in the UK by donating a portion of our online sales revenue to these causes.
#11 FAIR PRICES
The actual cost of any transaction includes environmental and human elements. TEKO pays a fair price for its wool, labor and other materials, so that resources like land and water can be managed wisely, employees can enjoy better health and animals are treated humanely.
