The EU Textile Strategy is driving companies toward more sustainable and responsible practices. As a key player in the workwear sector, we are committed to aligning with these evolving regulations and expectations.

We participated in the Central Chamber of Commerce's big Corporate Responsibility Day. A video recording of the event is now available (in Finnish).

We calculate our carbon footprint every year. Our 2023 emissions inventory gave us a great revelation.

You may have read on our website about our ambition to produce carbon neutral workwear. We actually took this statement out from our communications in the spring of 2024. Climate change tackling is an ongoing process. At Touchpoint, we have been compiling information on carbon inventories at company- and product level. We have reported our carbon footprint annually in our Sustainability Reports, where you can read more about what Touchpoint's corporate carbon footprint actually consists of. As a company, we could be called carbon neutral because we annually “offset” the emissions of our own operations (scope 2), which are not really that high. Nevertheless, we have chosen to remove the carbon neutral product target from our communications. Why?

Europe is a very material-poor continent. Cotton hardly grows here, and polyester comes from crude oil which is itself a very controversial raw material. Why is ReTouch-fabric so innovative? One might ask.

Touchpoint, a pioneer in sustainable workwear solutions, launches a new workwear material made from textile processing company Rester’s recycled fiber. The recycled fibers are processed from end-of-life workwear. This is an important step towards a closed-loop recycling of textiles and more sustainable business models.
