ECOVEST

ECOVEST is a Portuguese textile design and manufacturing company located in Vila do Conde, dedicated to developing and producing fashion collections in an environmentally friendly manner. Founded as Ecovest - Sociedade Têxtil, Lda., the company has built its identity around the principle that style and sustainability can go hand in hand. The company offers a comprehensive, end-to-end service to its clients: beginning with the creation of fashion sketches and print designs, moving through pattern-making and the development of garment samples, and culminating in full production runs and finishing. This integrated approach allows ECOVEST to maintain close quality control at every stage of the supply chain. A key pillar of ECOVEST's philosophy is the rigorous selection of fabrics and materials. Every input undergoes a strict vetting process to ensure it meets the company's environmental and quality standards, reducing the impact of production on natural ecosystems and promoting a more circular approach to fashion. ECOVEST has achieved the SMETA certification and is working toward OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 certification by reducing hazardous chemical components such as heavy metals and toxic dyes. Operating from its base in the Norte region of Portugal — one of Europe's most established textile manufacturing corridors — ECOVEST combines traditional craftsmanship with an eco-conscious ethos. With over two decades of experience in the textile and fashion industry, and a growing team supported by qualified new talent, ECOVEST represents a model for how the fashion industry can evolve toward more responsible production practices without sacrificing creativity or commercial viability.
