Our Suppliers
We Care
The relationships with our suppliers are important to us – many of our suppliers have been with us for a long time. We value the benefits of long-term partnerships, as they enhance communication, our working methods, and the products we offer. Maintaining stable relationships over time is a priority for us, and we have established strong bonds with our two largest suppliers for more then a decade. All our factories are of higher standard and follow our strict Code of Conduct. They are also certified through SEDEX, amfori BSCI or similar organisations.
Since its beginning in 2004, byTiMo has focused on responsibility and sustainability in everything we do. We have always been closely involved with our suppliers and their productions, and we have a range of policies and guidelines in place to ensure that we, along with our partners and suppliers, maintain sustainable and responsible business practices.
All our suppliers must sign our Supplier Code of Conduct, along with the accompanying chemical regulations "ZDHC Wastewater Guidelines" and "ZDHC Manufacturing Restricted Substances List." We also require our factories to have their own guidelines, systems, and routines in line with our responsible and sustainable profile, as the requirements in our "Code of Conduct for Suppliers" only define our minimum standards. We only wish to do business with factories and suppliers who share our commitment to fair and safe working, health, and environmental conditions.
Supplier Monitoring and Evaluation
To ensure compliance with the Supplier Code of Conduct requirements, close follow-up is necessary. Working conditions are monitored by both external, independent third-party auditing firms and our own employees.
Through ongoing dialogue and collaboration with suppliers, our aim is to foster a positive work environment and fair working conditions for factory employees.
