Take responsibility – for people, materials and the future
Acting responsibly is part of our corporate philosophy.
This is based on binding standards, an environmental management system certified to ISO 14001:2015, and the OEKO-TEX® STeP certification of more than two-thirds of our production facilities.
Our fields of action
Product policy and raw materials
Our high quality standards in our product policy are firmly anchored in quality management and have been certified by DEKRA according to DIN EN ISO 9001:2015 since 1993.
Employees
Fair working conditions and the protection of employee rights are binding at Teamdress. The basis for this is our Code of Conduct and the OEKO‑TEX® STeP certification of 70% of our production facilities.
Logistics & Planning
The shipping boxes for our products are made from 100% recycled (post-production recyclate) and biodegradable materials. We also rely on structured disposal and recycling solutions, such as processing worn-out items workwear to felt rolls.
Energy management
Reducing CO₂ emissions is an important goal as part of our environmental management. In Poland, 41% of the energy requirement was covered by renewable sources in 2025, including through the operation of photovoltaic systems.
