Greener Future

Our planet is important. Unique. Alive. Precious. The way we care for it becomes the legacy we bequeath to our families, to our children and to future generations. As an important player in Québec’s fashion industry, we wish to do our part to care for our wonderful planet because each of our decisions and actions counts and may have a positive impact on our future. Whether these measures be small or large in scale and ambition, we wish to make a real difference by providing consumers high-quality, durable fashion items that meet the needs of families and, above all, that are more respectful of the planet.

We replaced a lot of our in-store display media with recycled and/or recyclable paper or cardboard. We encouraged our customers to reduce their use of plastic bags when shopping, by adding fees for each bag sold and by providing new reusable bags. We greatly increased our production of clothing containing cotton from organic farming in our collections for the entire family. In fact, to offer the highest quality, softness and comfort to your newborns, over 90% of our pyjamas for babies now contain organic cotton. In addition, almost 50% of everyday wear for babies and 40% of children’s styles also contain organic cotton!

Over 40% of our men's basics contain organic cotton, and this number goes up to 100% for our basics in the women’s department. All our jeans for women are now made with REPREVE®, Unifi Inc., which uses plastic bottles as a primary material. Finally, most winter coats and snowsuits that are coated with a water repellent treatment to make them waterproof are free from perfluocarbons (PFCs), chemicals which are harmful to the environment.

PFC-free Fabrics

Les perfluorocarbures sont des substances chimiques présentes dans les traitements de déperlance appliqués sur les couches extérieures des manteaux afin de leur procurer un degré d’imperméabilité; l’eau coule au lieu d’être absorbée par le tissu. De nouveaux procédés plus écologiques nous permettent maintenant de produire des manteaux sans PFC et dont la résistance à l’eau est tout aussi bonne.
