Sleeping With Jacques Sustainability Actions

Uses slow fashion design

Sleeping with Jacques says it follows a slow fashion approach by making edited capsule collections with classic styles meant to last. This means it tries to avoid fast, short-lived trends and instead focuses on fewer pieces that can be worn in more than one setting. The brand also says its clothes are designed to move from sleepwear to daywear, which may help people wear them more often and keep them longer.

Uses certified materials

The brand says its silk comes from a female-founded supplier and is made on two silk farms where silkworms feed on organic mulberry leaves. It says recycled water is used during production. It also says its natural fibres are Oeko-Tex certified (tested for harmful substances), Global Recycle Standard approved, FSC approved, and SGS Responsible Forestry Certified. These labels suggest some checks on material sourcing and processing.

Uses compostable packaging

Sleeping with Jacques says it uses compostable and biodegradable packaging across its supply chain. It also says its distribution packaging is DIN certified, which means it meets a German standard for compostability. The brand adds that its head office uses a reuse, repurpose, and recycle system. These steps point to an effort to cut waste, although the brand does not publish detailed data on how much packaging waste it has reduced.

Checks suppliers and factories

The brand says it has a code of conduct for suppliers and that third parties must follow environmental rules, labour rules, animal welfare rules, and sustainability practices. It also says its factories are BSCI and Sedex approved. BSCI is a supply-chain audit system, and Sedex is a platform used to share ethical trade data. These claims suggest some oversight of suppliers, but the brand does not share audit results or how often checks happen.

Gives profits to charities

Sleeping with Jacques says that since 2017 it has allocated a percentage of profits to the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre and UN Women. It also says it has supported disadvantaged women and works with charity directors and ambassadors to build awareness and provide support. This shows a social impact focus, especially around women’s empowerment and support for people seeking asylum.
