Recycled cotton can either be sourced from pre-consumer or post-consumer textile waste. By using recycled cotton, we’re able to eliminate the farming, harvesting and ginning processes. In turn, this helps to reduce the use of raw materials, water, chemicals and energy.Wool is an important material to Ted so it’s important we source it as responsibly as possible. Responsible means that at farm stage the animal welfare of the sheep has been respected and the land where the sheep graze has been effectively managed. Less chemicals and energy are used in the farming and production of responsible wool compared to regular wool. Responsible Wool at Ted includes preferred options of organic wool, recycled wool or mulesing free wool.

Our third-party partners are permitted to use responsibly sourced feather and down products, providing they have been certified to the Responsible Down Standard (RDS) or have been certified as recycled by GRS or RCS. Wool production requires land for grazing sheep, as well as energy, water and chemicals to convert the wool into a finished and useable fibre. By using wool waste collected from factories or woolly jumpers at the end of a products life, we can eliminate these processes and minimise the environmental impact along the way. We know that the responsibility doesn’t stop with the raw materials that make our products; it extends into all aspects of the products life cycle and includes the manufacturing processes too. Animal welfare is incredibly important to us at Ted. We have a strict Animal Welfare and Responsible Material policy (link to policy) which specifies the minimum requirements we set for our suppliers when sourcing animal derived fibres. There are also some materials that we simply won’t use. By this, we mean a list of banned materials including those that are not sourced or used under any circumstance, in any of our products. All our suppliers must comply with the banning of these materials. This means finding a fibre or material which has a reduced environmental impact and using it to replace a more conventional material or process. By choosing alternative materials and processes, we’re using less water, less energy and fewer chemicals and resources.

More From Ted Baker

Ted Baker insists that no cotton sourced from Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan finds its way into our products. This is because of documented reports of industry-wide, systematic human rights violations, including the use of child labour and forced labour in the harvesting of cotton. No ifs, ands, or buts: we do not, and will not, tolerate these practices.

Indulge your loved ones, or yourself, this festive season with the enticing Ted Baker Complete Gift Set, so that they’re feeling revitalised and ready to conquer the day. Virgin polyester and polyamide (aka nylon) are made from crude oil which is a limited resource. Large amounts of energy and water are required to convert crude oil into a synthetic fibre. By using recycled alternatives, the raw materials and energy needed to produce them are reduced. Recycled Polyester and nylon are made from plastic waste, most commonly water bottles. The plastic waste is cleaned, crushed and melted to then be spun into recycled polyester and nylon yarn. This process uses less energy and helps stop plastic waste from ending up in landfills.Through this initiative, we are making commitments, together with other big industry players, to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions and water footprint of our products over the next 10 years. We will do this by swapping our conventional materials to more sustainable options, while also working with our suppliers to improve their manufacturing practices. We are also committing to putting in place circular business thinking to promote the reuse of materials and products, while increasing the recyclability of our garments. The aim of Better Cotton Initiative (BCI) is to make global cotton production better for the people who produce it, better for the environment and better for the future of the cotton industry. Through education and training, farmers learn more about sustainable production methods, helping them to reduce their environmental impact, use less water and fewer harmful pesticides, and increase their yields and profits. When we say responsibly sourced cotton at Ted we are referring to cotton that comes from more sustainable and responsible sources. This means the water and chemical use is reduced from farm to manufacture and the farmers benefit from improved working conditions. Responsible cotton includes organic cotton, recycled cotton or cotton sourced as part of the Better Cotton Initiative. We keep a close eye on how our products are produced, working with our suppliers to reduce the impact from dying, printing, tanning and washing. Rethinking our manufacturing processes can also help reduce our carbon, water and chemical impact. One way we do this is by using digital printing instead of other methods of printing. Digital printing creates beautifully vivid images and uses less water and ink to do so.

Due to multiple reports of unethical treatment of birds, we are no longer using down and feathers through any of our direct suppliers in Ted owned collections. Unlike conventional cotton, the organic cotton farming process does not use synthetic pesticides, insecticides, fertilisers or GMO crops. The crops are predominantly rain fed too, which means the negative environmental impacts of growing cotton are minimised.And not forgetting Dark Mahogany, with its notes of lemon, geranium, pepper, cedarwood, and patchouli, plus musk and rich amber, for a luxury, distinguished aura. Mulesing is a cruel practice that can still take place in the farming of sheep to prevent flystrike, mulesing free wool ensures this practice has not taken place and the health of the sheep has been protected. Instead of carrying out mulesing the farmers take a progressive approach to farming and land management as a prevention. At Ted we are working with our suppliers to phase out the practice of mulesing in our collections. Vintage Amber is a true classic with notes of lime, mandarin leaf, jasmine and pepper fusions, as well as smooth vanilla and moss, producing an opulent, enduring aroma. We are also stopping the use of alpaca in new developments due to unethical treatment of alpacas in some farms. Ted collections will be free from alpaca fibres from AW21 and onwards.
