*All Sales Final* These t-shirts are for the next generation of Volvo drivers and technicians. The strong colors and cool front and back graphics simply make them must-haves and excellent gifts and presents for anyone aged 5-13. There’s also a white Iron Mark logo printed on the left sleeve. And, since we care about both our youngsters and the world, the shirts are made from organic cotton approved by both GOTS and Fairtrade.
GOTS – Global Organic Textile Standard. Products with this certificate must include at least 70 % organic fibers and meet strict environmental, social and toxicologic criteria. For instance, dyestuff, auxiliaries and accessories are all scrutinized—and wet-processing units must have a functional waste water treatment plant. GOTS is the leading standard for textiles made from organic fibers and a clear proof that our high-quality products are also consciously produced.

This symbol is dear to us. It guarantees that the cotton comes from a supplier that pays farmers at least the market price and treat the workforce fairly. We are truly honored to sell Fairtrade products. They make weaker producers more competitive, improve their position in the supply chain and help them meet challenges ranging from climate change to price pressure, government subsidies in richer countries and poor terms of trade.

This safety standard goes far beyond legal requirements when addressing and regulating the use of harmful substances for textile and clothing manufacturers. We are proud to be associated with it, as it keeps consumers safe. In fact, the more intense the contact between skin and product, the more strict the human-ecological requirements of OEKO-TEX are. This is truly the standard that matters when it comes to raising awareness about using chemicals responsibly.

Living wages—a small price to pay. For us, it’s a given that anyone hired by our suppliers is treated fairly and equally, regardless of ethnicity, gender or sexual orientation. We also urge our suppliers to pay a living wage rather than the minimum wage. Why? Because, we see it as a basic right for people to be paid enough to afford food, water, housing, education, health care, clothes and other essentials for themselves and their families.
