Elevating Lives
We innovate for sustainability. How we develop, source and manufacture apparel can have a positive impact on the communities where it is made.
Responsible Sourcing
As our supply chain has grown, we’ve taken care to ensure our suppliers operate in an ethical and responsible manner.
We purchase products from long-term, reliable and responsible partners and work with respected independent third parties who audit and guide our work from fabrication to finished product. By making social responsibility fundamental to our sourcing decisions, we make sure our suppliers take our commitment to operate ethically and in compliance with the law as seriously as we do.
Sustainable Materials
A sustainable product begins with the materials we choose.
We take steps to reduce the environmental impacts in both our products and our packaging, and use industry-leading tools to measure their environmental impact.
We are continuing to grow our assortment of low-impact products by further developing the C-FREE line of apparel, products certified by ClimeCo to have a lower carbon footprint through a combination of preferred materials and carbon offset project investments. In 2024, C-FREE styles offset 20,000 metric tons of emissions—the equivalent of 3,947 homes’ electricity use for one year.
SanMar now offers hundreds of sustainable product options, across multiple categories.
