Hap Ethical Goals

Everyone needs a little håp

The translation of håp from Norwegian to English is simply "hope", we thought long and hard during recent global events about creating a new way of offering on trend fashion with an ethical goal.

You can now shop knowing that all of our garments are Fairwear & PETA vegan approved, made with 100% Organic cotton or mixed with recycled polyester. All of the factories in our supply chain are independently audited to ensure that workers rights are adhered to.

Here at håp-parel we are committed where possible to using 100% organic cotton or salvaged/recycled materials. Working with our supply chain we aim to bring affordable eco-friendly fashion to the marketplace. All of our t-shirts are 100% organic cotton produced in a FAIRWEAR factory, meaning the staff that work there are paid a fair wage for their service. The factory is independently audited each year to ensure the FAIRWEAR standards are met.

We only use water based inks in our garments and the process has achieved the highest standard of accreditation :

"the OEKO-Tex® accreditation of Class-I, which is the most demanding (and harder to achieve) certificate and covers eco friendly textiles (direct contact with the skin) for babies and small children up to the age of three."

This means our t-shirts and sweaters/hoodies are vegan friendly.

Where some of our supply chain are unable to supply items that follow this criteria, we donate 10% of the profits of sales on those items to our chosen charity. The charities change every year and the items that contribute to those funds are marked in their product description.

WE ENSURE THAT ALL OF THE BRANDS WE SELL ONLINE ALSO ADHERE TO OUR ETHICAL TRADING GUIDELINES.
