Sustainability

More than a commitment.
The way.

Sustainability has been a central pillar of Troficolor’s business strategy throughout its almost seven decades of history. As the fashion industry evolves, Troficolor has stepped up its efforts to align innovation with environmental responsibility.

The company’s commitment goes beyond processing high-quality fabrics; it also involves a conscious and sustainable approach, especially in the denim fashion sector.

One of Troficolor’s most significant initiatives is upcycling, a process that transforms textile waste and discarded materials into new products with greater added value. In the denim sector, this means reusing fabrics and production leftovers to create new, innovative and environmentally friendly garments.

Troficolor has adopted upcycling as a strategic practice, reducing the amount of textile waste and reducing the need for virgin raw materials. This process not only contributes to reducing the environmental footprint, but also stimulates the creativity of designers because they are challenged to reinvent and give new life to existing materials, creating unique and sustainable collections.

Troficolor’s commitment to sustainability is evident at every stage of its production process. The company invests in advanced technologies that allow denim to be processed more efficiently and with less environmental impact. The responsible use of natural resources, such as water and energy, is a constant priority. In addition, Troficolor works continuously to reduce carbon emissions and promote circular economy practices.

The choice of fabrics that take into account the implementation of eco-friendly dyeing processes and the choice of organic and recycled fibres are just some of the practices adopted to minimize environmental impact. Troficolor is also committed to ensuring that all chemical products used in the treatment of fabrics are safe and do not harm the environment, holding several certificates that attest to this practice, such as: GOTS, Oeko-Tex, GRS and others.

Innovation is an intrinsic feature of Troficolor’s DNA. The company is always looking for new solutions that not only meet market demands, but also promote sustainability. Partnerships with other companies, research institutions and emerging designers are key to developing new technologies and sustainable practices.

Troficolor’s current fabric and denim fashion collections incorporate production technologies that save water and energy, and use natural dyes that are less harmful to the environment. These innovations are a testimony to the company’s commitment to being part of a movement for change towards more sustainable fashion.

In addition to practicing and promoting sustainability, Troficolor believes in the importance of educating and making its employees, partners and clients aware of the importance of environmental responsibility. Ongoing training programs and awareness campaigns are carried out to ensure that everyone is aligned with the company’s values.

The company also actively participates in international sustainable fashion forums and fairs, as a way of sharing knowledge and promoting the adoption of sustainable practices throughout the industry.
