Fusing form and function is at
the heart of every GOFRANCK design. Each piece is created with purpose, carefully crafted to protect the wearer from the city and the elements.

At the same time, we recognize
our responsibility to move toward a more sustainable future and minimize fashion’s environmental impact. Our goal is to become climate positive, and we’ll be frank: we’re not there yet. That’s why we set ambitious targets and
are taking concrete steps to get there.

Follow our journey.

MATERIALS
Sustainable materials and finishes are central to every GOFRANCK garment. Each piece is animal-free and built to last, combining high-performance, toxin-free fabrics and trims with long-term durability.


DUPONT SORONA® BIODEGRADABLE INSULATION 
Our padded styles feature Sorona® fibre filling, a plant-based insulation with high-performance qualities. This biodegradable filling provides exceptional warmth, is cruelty-free, moisture-wicking, washable, and maintains its shape over time.


BIONIC FINISH ECO WATER REPELLENT FINISH
Our fabrics are enhanced with a non-halogenated, APEO-free, fluorine-free water repellent finish for reliable performance. Future steps include introducing ecological waterproof coatings that meet our high protection standards, a goal we are actively working toward.

HIGH PERFORMANCE ANIMAL-FREE MATERIALS
Our outerwear is free of animal products and made from high quality materials that are produced as sustainable as possible. There are so many animal-free alternatives for outerwear that there just isn’t any need to use them in our
designs. We’re working to limit or eventually eliminate the use of virgin materials and only use recycled fabrics, but we’re still in the testing phase for recycled fabrics and yarn that are up to our standard. By only choosing high quality materials we can ensure that your GOFRANCK will stand the test of time and won’t end up in the land fill. On top of carefully selecting the materials our garments are made of, we are also working on a circularity program to ensure that we can recycle as much of the materials as possible and reach our goal of becoming completely circular.

CIRCULARITY PROGRAMME
Help us to reach our goal of becoming completely circular and hand in your GOFRANCK after you’re done with it. You’ll get a store credit and we’ll make sure that the jacket gets a good second life and stays out of landfills, so it is a win-win situation.

ETHICAL SOURCING AND MANUFACTURING
All GOFRANCK items are produced in an ethical way that minimizes harm for the environment and the people working in the factories. By only working with certified suppliers, we can guarantee that all the people involved in making our outerwear work in safe conditions, get fair pay and work normal hours. Choosing conscious means not looking away, controlling that conditions are upheld with annual reports and knowing that what you buy really matters.

GREEN TRANSPORT + PACKAGING
Choosing wisely how to transport the collection is a big step in becoming more sustainable. The supply chain is now delivered by boat and train instead or air freight. Each GOFRANCK is shipped in a biodegradable polybag and has fully recycled hangtags. There is still more to
be done though. We are currently in conversations to find out the greenest domestic shipment service, but as this is not handled by one courier service when travelling through multiple countries it has proven very challenging logistically and as of yet we weren’t able to find a shipping service that covers our needs. Work in progress!

Taking proper care of our outerwear items
has a big effect on the durability and lifespan of the garment and in turn minimises the impact on the environment. Because of this we’re always working on creating product care tools like the Organotex X GOFRANCK Water Repellent Spray. This ensures that the jacket can be properly cleaned without damaging the waterproof elements of the fabric. On top of that we’re educating our customers on proper care, for example with our care labels with jacket specific cleaning instructions to ensure proper care and maintenance.
