CERTIFIED RESPONSIBILITYTM Why certificates? By applying to the highest certifiable standards for textiles throughout our production we ve set some objective criteria for our suppliers to relate to and comply with. And since the certificates are governed by independent, internationally recognized organizations, we ve completely exclude ourselves from the sphere of influence during the monitoring of compliance. Instead we can focus on performance. Putting the certificates at the core of Neutral is our way of making sustainable production more accessible and manageable. On their own, none of the individual certificates are sufficient to meet the Neutral criteria for truly responsible production. But in combination they address all relevant issues throughout the entire supply chain. We call it Certified Responsibility. Certified Responsibility Our certificates are more than just funky looking stamps. They are your guarantee that your new Neutral product has been produced according to the highest ethical and environmental standards. Together, the certificates cover every single part of the production. GOTS 100% organic cotton by GOTS Sustainable Textile methods certified and inspected by Control Union. The aim of this standard is to ensure the textiles are made using organic raw materials and environmentally and socially responsible methods. License no.

WHY NEUTRAL? OKAY ORGANIC COTTON Why? It s earthworms instead of chemicals, cleaner ground water and rivers, and toxic free handpicking by the Indian farmers. OKAY ENVIRONMENT Why? Our actions shouldn t be other people s problem. So it s only reasonable we clean and reuse our wastewater, use wind energy, reduce and recycle waste, and take responsibility all the way through our production chain with GOTS and the EU Eco-Label certificates. T-SHIRTS TOPS POLOS OKAY FARMERS Why? Cotton farmers bargaining position is often weak. As a consequence it s necessary to complement market mechanisms with Fairtrade to ensure that farmers get a fair price for their work in the fields. An okay deal has to be good for both parties. OKAY WORKING CONDITIONS Why? Factory workers are hard working people. That s okay when they have good, safe working conditions. By using the highest labor rights standard around, the SA8000 standard, we know that s the case. OKAY TEXTILES Why? Neutral avoids harmful chemicals in the production. This means that the final product is clean and ready to wear - no need to wash before use. OKAY ENERGY Why? Replacing conventional energy sources with renewable energy is beneficial for both climate and local environment. Neutral is produced at facilities powered by wind mills. 6 7

OKAY FACT #2 MORE SUGAR PLEASE It s okay only to use biological pesticides. Instead of using toxic insecticides the cotton plants used by Neutral are sprayed with sugar water. Ants love sugar and now see the plant as their larder which they ll have to defend from cotton beetles and other pest attacks. OKAY FACT #1 PREMIUM QUALITY Quality and responsibility go hand in hand we must manufacture to last. The strict requirements in certified responsible production require extra attention to detail and careful handling of all materials. Okay production methods simply demand premium quality.

OKAY FACT #4 PESTICIDES In India, cotton production occupies just 5 % of the total agricultural land, yet cotton is responsible for more than 50 % of the country s pesticides usage.

OKAY FACT #8 HOW TO DYE It s okay to use the most expensive and friendly dyes. It s okay to use organic softeners because they re less harmful. And it s no more than okay to purify waste water after using it for dyeing and softening fabric! OKAY FACT #9 UNDERGROUND Organic farmers use earthworms for composting and processing the soil.

OKAY FACT #10 EFFICIENCY THROUGH YOGA All employees are offered yoga lessons. Yoga affects not only the physical aspect but also soul and spirit. It makes the workers more focused and the working environment better and safer. Efficiency through happiness is okay. OKAY FACT #11 WATER USAGE Organic cotton production makes room for worms, beetles, and other small creatures. They rebuild the soil and improve its ability to absorb rain water. Avoiding water shortage and making farmers less susceptible to climate change is okay.
