We recognise that the future of workwear must be built on sustainability, responsibility, and innovation. As a leading manufacturer, we have a duty to minimise our environmental footprint while maintaining the highest standards of quality, safety, and performance.
That’s why we launched Blue Sphere, a dedicated sub-brand that reflects our commitment to eco-conscious manufacturing, ethical production, and continuous improvement in sustainability practices. Through Blue Sphere, we aim to set new standards in responsible workwear production—delivering durable, high-quality garments while reducing our impact on the planet.
A Greener Future with Blue Sphere
Eco-Conscious Materials and Packaging
Materials selection plays a crucial role in reducing environmental impact. Blue Sphere products are made using:
- Recycled and organic textiles – We prioritise sustainable fabric choices, incorporating recycled polyester, organic cotton, and other low-impact fibres.
- 100% recyclable packaging – We are actively phasing out single-use plastics in favour of recycled and recyclable packaging materials.
- Lower-impact dyes and finishes – We collaborate with suppliers to reduce harmful chemicals in our production processes, ensuring safer textiles for workers and end-users.
Ethical and Responsible Manufacturing
We are committed to upholding the highest ethical and social compliance standards in our supply chain:
- Accredited production facilities – Our wholly owned garment factory is Sedex SMETA certified, ensuring compliance with rigorous ethical manufacturing standards.
- Third-party audits – We work exclusively with fully audited manufacturing partners who share our commitment to fair labour practices.
- Worker welfare – We ensure safe working conditions, fair wages, and transparent business practices across our entire supply chain.
Minimising Waste and Advancing the Circular Economy
Reducing waste at every stage of the product lifecycle is central to our sustainability strategy. We focus on:
- Sustainable sourcing – Raw materials are chosen with longevity, recyclability, and minimal environmental impact in mind.
- Waste-conscious production – Our factories and distribution centres follow strict energy and resource efficiency guidelines to minimise textile and packaging waste.
- End-of-life solutions – In collaboration with The University of Birmingham’s ARLI project, we are researching new ways to repurpose and recycle worn-out workwear, supporting a circular economy where materials are reused rather than discarded.
Water Conservation and Responsible Resource Use
The textile industry is a major consumer of water, and we are actively working to reduce our usage through:
- Water-efficient manufacturing – We partner with glove and garment manufacturers that use innovative water-reduction techniques in their production processes.
- Plastic reduction initiatives – By incorporating recycled plastics into our products and packaging, we help divert waste from oceans and landfill.
- Energy-efficient operations – Across our facilities, we are investing in energy-saving measures to reduce carbon emissions.
Giving Back to Communities
Sustainability is not just about the environment—it’s also about making a positive social impact. That’s why Supertouch:
- Donates 50% of annual net profits from all product ranges to the Balqees Welfare Foundation, funding education and healthcare initiatives.
- Allocates an additional 5% of revenue from Blue Sphere garments produced in our own factory to further support community projects.
- Promotes ethical sourcing – Our commitment to responsible sourcing ensures that workers in our supply chain are treated with dignity and fairness.
Driving Lasting Change
Choosing Blue Sphere means choosing workwear that balances performance, durability, and sustainability. Our vision is to drive real, measurable change within the industry—ensuring that businesses no longer have to choose between quality and sustainability.
By investing in innovative materials, ethical production, waste reduction, and community support, Supertouch is taking meaningful action toward a more sustainable and responsible future.
