Corporate Social Responsability policy
Fusalp has implemented a number of measures to improve its ecological impact:
- Some of the textiles we use are totally or partially recycled. Although the percentage is currently marginal, this is a short-term priority.
- We have stopped using real rabbit, fox and racoon fur.
- Our feather and down products are RDS® - Responsible Down Standard certified. This is a global certification standard that aims to ensure the humane treatment of animals and the traceability of feathers and down in the supply chain. It is managed by an independent certification body and has been developed with input from animal rights groups, industry experts, brands and retailers.
- We are working towards switching to the use of RWS® - Responsible Wool Standard - from the Autumn Winter 2022 collection. This is a global certification standard that aims to ensure the welfare of sheep in wool production and the traceability of wool in the supply chain. It is steered by an independent certification body and has been developed with input from animal rights groups, industry experts, brands and retailers.
- We have opened a storage point in Asia in order to reduce the transport of certain items, and we prefer to transport as many items as possible by train (the most environmentally-friendly option).
- We are reducing our plastic packaging as much as possible, which is now 100% recyclable.
- All our packaging and publishing documents are made from wood fibre certified by the FSC® - Forest Stewardship Council. This is a non-governmental organisation whose mission is to create and promote an independent and effective forest certification system. Created on the initiative of a group of companies, environmental associations and representatives of social rights, the mission of this independent organisation is to ensure, through regular monitoring of certified forests and companies, the application of responsible forest management and conservation standards.
