Thesis 5: Everyone can see if we're putting our money where our mouth is

Sometimes the consequences of responsible actions are difficult to notice immediately: chains can be long and complex, and the impact of changes may only be fully visible over time.

That is why we find it important to monitor and report openly and regularly facts and figures about our progress and challenges.

Standards make progress comparable; certificates indicate the
meeting the requirements – and we have no reason to hold a candle to it.

RESPONSIBILITY IS TRANSPARENCY

For us, measurement and certifications are an opportunity to develop every aspect of our operations openly and without prejudice, to identify ways to improve what we do, and to invest in building the future.

By clearly stating our goals, we offer everyone the opportunity to independently assess our success. We are not afraid that someone will interpret our actions as “greenwashing” when we report openly about our activities. We want to show that good can be done and produced in a way that meets the workwear criteria from all perspectives.

Often, even small actions are important. We pack our clothes in the smallest possible box. This avoids unnecessary empty space during transport. Old boxes are reused, even if they are not always very pretty anymore, and we do not use plastic bags in the packaging. Over 430,000 Dimex products are sold annually, so we save quite a lot of bags this way. We choose ship instead of plane for transport.

Sometimes these actions may even seem a little strange to our customers. That's why we are happy to tell you what our choices are based on and what we believe we will achieve with them. Transparency is a key part of our responsibility thinking and it ensures that our actions remain in the spotlight and, on the other hand, always stand the light of day.
