ECOVEST

ECOVEST designs and produces fashion collections in Vila do Conde, Portugal, and sets out to do it in an environmentally friendly way. The company was founded as Ecovest - Sociedade Têxtil, Lda. Its identity rests on the idea that style and sustainability can go together. Clients get a complete service. It starts with fashion sketches and print designs, moves on to pattern-making and garment samples, and ends with full production runs and finishing. Because ECOVEST covers every stage, it can keep close control of quality throughout the supply chain. Fabrics and materials are chosen rigorously. Every input goes through a strict check to make sure it meets the company's environmental and quality standards, which reduces the impact of production on natural ecosystems and promotes a more circular approach to fashion. ECOVEST holds SMETA certification. It's working towards OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 by reducing hazardous chemical components such as heavy metals and toxic dyes. Vila do Conde is in Norte, one of Europe's most established textile manufacturing corridors. ECOVEST combines traditional craftsmanship there with an eco-conscious outlook. It has more than two decades of experience in textiles and fashion, and its team is growing, with qualified new people joining.
