OUR COMMITMENTS
Trench & Coat is the little sister of the family business Lener Cordier, proud to transmit its values and know-how from generation to generation.
Here are our common commitments:
Transparency above all
- We are committed to explaining who we are and how we work, while sharing our successes and areas for improvement.
- Among our recent initiatives, in early 2020, we conducted a BSCI (Business Social Compliance Initiative) Social Audit Plan to get an outside look at the working conditions and compensation levels of our employees. We have thus put in place a continuous improvement plan by scrupulously following the organisation's code of conduct.
Loyalty as a motivating factor
- We have been working with the same European partners for over 50 years, especially our Italian fabric suppliers.
- The average seniority of our 400 employees, spread between France and Ukraine, is 19 years: a serious guarantee of expertise and attachment to the company !
- Your satisfaction is our priority. Our team bends over backwards to answer all your questions as quickly as possible.
Eco-responsibility as a guiding principle
- Our production remains European and therefore relatively close to home, and we only use trucks for transport.
- We are adept at producing small series. We are committed to sustainable production and do everything possible to optimise and reuse materials.
- As a committed and supportive company, our teams are always ready to get involved: they have just demonstrated this again by spontaneously and massively launching the manufacture of masks and gowns to fight against Covid-19.
- We give great priority to natural materials such as wool and cotton.
- Together with our suppliers, we are moving towards more and more eco-responsible certified materials: GRS (Global Recycled Standard, a certification that guarantees traceability and the presence of recycled fibres), but also Oekotex (absence of harmful substances).
In short, quality materials for durable and trendy pieces for a long time to come.
