People make our products – and we don't forget that. On this page, we show how we put responsibility into practice in our supply chain: through our collaboration with the Fair Wear Foundation, our Code of Conduct, our HRDD Policy, our grievance mechanism and an open look at the partners we produce with.

OCEANSAPART has been collaborating with the Fair Wear Foundation since July 1, 2021 – a non-profit organization committed to safe and fair working conditions in the textile industry worldwide. For us, this means: We take responsibility in our supply chain. And not just when an audit is around the corner.

Fair Wear brings brands, factories, and other stakeholders together to drive structural change – in a system that's often highly complex. Our shared goal: better working conditions for the people who make our products.

And here's the thing: No garment is 100% fair. But we can – and want to – get a little better every day. That's exactly why we collaborate with Fair Wear. As a producing company, we always leave a footprint. And where people work together, things don't always run perfectly. What matters to us: paying attention, taking responsibility, and finding solutions together – instead of pretending there are no challenges.

HRDD stands for Human Rights Due Diligence — the process of identifying and addressing human rights risks in our supply chain. Our HRDD Policy describes how we identify, assess and address risks — from prevention and grievance mechanisms to remediation. The process is guided by the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, the OECD Guidelines and the ILO Core Labour Standards.

What happens when something goes wrong in our supply chain? Our Grievance Mechanism Policy shows how complaints are received, who handles them and how we ensure remediation — with clear deadlines and protection for everyone who speaks up.
