The renowned brand Hanro uses the MADE IN GREEN label for a selection of specific series to highlight transparent, certified processes—from OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 tested materials to environmentally and socially responsible production verified through OEKO-TEX® STeP certification, which is required to be awarded the MADE IN GREEN label.

“No compromises in quality. Long product lifespans. That makes our products sustainable - and MADE IN GREEN helps us communicate that.”, we learn from the Hanro team, Stephan Hohmann, Managing Director, Christiane Braun, Head of Product Management & Design, Claudia Brugger – Product Management and Anette Scheibal, Head of Quality Management, Austria.
