Vertical Activewear is part of a larger community that is concerned about apparel manufacturing in respect to people, environment, and sustainable business. By looking into slow-fashion, we are practicing social responsibility and reducing our environmental footprint without sacrificing customer satisfaction and quality products. Let’s dive into the details as to why slow fashion is the right choice!
What is Slow Fashion?
Slow fashion is about prioritizing quality, sustainability, and ethics over rapid consumption. As a vertically integrated B2B clothing company, we champion this movement by controlling our entire supply chain, ensuring each garment is crafted with care. Slow fashion emphasizes durable and sustainable materials, timeless design, and ethical production, promoting a less wasteful, more conscious approach to fashion. By adopting slow fashion principles, we help reduce environmental impact, support fair labor practices, and encourage consumers to invest in long-lasting wardrobe staples.
Benefits of On-Demand vs. Traditional Manufacturing
On-Demand Manufacturing (ODM) firms focus more on specific aspects of the manufacturing process, which allows them to streamline operations, achieve economies of scale, and result in cost-effectiveness. Additionally, ODM manufacturers offer customization services and flexibility to meet different requirements from their clients, enabling them to work with various types of clients and industries. Lastly, by overseeing the entire processes, ODM companies can provide consistency and quality. Overall, ODM offers better efficiency and management.
Ethics of On Demand Manufacturing
As an original design manufacturer, we focus on allowing customer customization from a baseline of our current designs. This also allows for reduced workload for our workers and less environmental waste. The flexibility in clothing also means we will stay sustainable by limiting unwanted goods from going unused.
The Future of Slow Fashion
There is growing awareness among consumers and higher demand for sustainable ethically produced clothing. This leads to the development of new sustainable materials and provides opportunities to present themselves uniquely and attract consumers who are environmentally conscious. With this, accepting circular economic principles will lead to extending the lifespan of their products and reducing waste. The future of slow fashion is looking bright with plenty of opportunities to innovate.
