FRISTADS GREEN  

THE WORLD’S FIRST ENVIRONMENTALLY DECLARED GARMENT COLLECTION

Fristads is the first company in the world to measure the environmental impact of clothes. Fristads Green is a concept of workwear where the entire manufacturing chain is characterized by environmental awareness and innovation to minimize the footprint on the environment.

We launched the first Fristads Green collection in the autumn 2019. Our aim is to make the Green concept a part of every product segment in the next coming years. All Fristads Green products have an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) with information about the product's total environmental impact. In September 2019 the craftsman collection was awarded with the international design prize Red Dot Award: Design Concept. Below you find the Fristads Green collections for craftsmen, industry and service and cold wind rain.

Water Scarcity Footprint (WSF) is a measurement of the potential environmental impact of water consumption. It considers the relative availability of water in a particular geographical area.

Global Warming Potential (GWP) describes the ability of different greenhouse gases to trap heat in the atmosphere over time, relative to carbon dioxide. To compare the effect on global warming of different gases, the values are converted to carbon dioxide equivalents.

The Fristads Green High visibility collections will meet a growing demand for high-vis clothing in the transportation and construction industries. They are also ideal for workers in road construction, maintenance and service.

The Fristads GPLU collection is made of organic cotton and polyester from recycled PET bottles, and reinforced where you need it the most, this collection of high-visibility workwear is both sustainable and durable. With four colour combinations, a wide size range and several women’s models, the GPLU collection has broad appeal.

The Fristads GSTP collection is made with sustainable 4-way stretch throughout and rib-knit stretch panels at the waist, these garments have double the comfort and a smaller environmental impact than regular high-vis workwear. The GSTP collection sports three colour combinations, a wide size range and several women’s models.​​​​​​​

Cold wind rain

Dress all year-round in environmentally declared garments! In the Fristads Green collection you find a water- and windproof shell jacket and a quilted light weight jacket. The jackets are made of recycled polyester and have been dyed using the colouring technique e-dye® which reduces water use with 75% compared to traditional dyeing. The quilted jacket has a lining made of recycled PrimaLoft® – fine fibres creating millions of air pockets keeping the body warm. Wear them separately or together depending on temperature and weather.

Fristads Green for craftsmen is a collection with an advanced clean design with minimal details and smart solutions, which saves energy in production and facilitates recycling of the material. The materials are 100% recycled polyester from PET bottles and undyed cotton. The polyester is dyed using the colouring system e.dye®, which reduces water consumption by 75% compared with traditional dyeing. All contrasting details and most of the zippers are made of recycled polyester. The buttons are made of raw finished metal to cut water consumption. Surplus material from the production is transformed into “comfort pads” – a bonus product for knees and elbows. The collection consists of a jacket, trousers, T-shirt and a fleece jacket.
