our commitments
A sustainable production
We manufacture 100% of our garments and undergarments in the region of Porto, in Portugal, a country of textile savoir-faire.
Indeed, Portugal figures among the most highly rated production sites for designers with high quality standards, especially concerning jersey work.
This location is a strategic choice as well, with regard to reactivity and flexibility, but also to environmental impact, considering the human size of the factories and the geographic proximity. Porto is only a 7 hour drive from Biarritz.
Our collection of socks is made in France. In a workshop specialised in knitting located not far from Toulouse, a 3 hour drive from Biarritz.
Our support to Nature protection
As a member of the philanthropic community 1% for the Planet France, we pledged to donate 1% of our annual revenue to environmental protection initiatives. www.onepercentfortheplanet.org
At Hemen we chose to support animal welfare and biodiversity by making donations to the following French associations:
- ASPAS Nature, Association pour la protection des Animaux Sauvages. 100% free and independent. ASPAS fights for the voice of the wild fauna / www.aspas-nature.org
- Hegalaldia, the local wildlife care center located 15 minutes from Biarritz / www.hegalaldia.org
Today’s ecology,
tomorrow’s economy
Our brand evolves alongside the world we live in. It channels that virtuous energy that we all need to face the environmental challenges that must be tackled, without feeling guilty of our own existence.
At Hemen, our fashion is both artisan-made and visionary, and boasts multiple work commitments, such as delivering quality products, adopting sustainable production methods and responsible consumption, but also multiple personal ones.
Environmentalists and humanists to the core, we are indeed proud to be able to support and promote the message of various environmental protection initiatives.
