RWS - Responsible Wool Standard
For our woolen baselayer program we are implementing the Responsible Wool Standard (RWS). This is a voluntary global standard that addresses the welfare of sheep and of the land they graze on. Our Inner Series is already fully certified against the RWS Standard – guaranteeing that we only use responsibly produced wool for these products.
The goals of the RWS are to support and promote the best practices of farmers; ensuring that wool comes from farms with a progressive approach to managing their land, and from sheep that have been treated responsibly.
All certified partners and all steps in the supply-chain, including Bergans, are being controlled and re-certified by a third-party organization each year. This is our guarantee that animal welfare is maintained and taken care of throughout the whole supply chain.
The RWS is an independent, voluntary standard. On farms, the certification ensures that sheep are treated with respect to their five freedoms and also ensures best practices in the management and protection of the land. Certification ensures that wool from certified partners is properly identified and tracked.
Key Points in the RWS standard:
- Protecting Animal Welfare: The Five Freedoms of sheep are protected at all times.
- Preserving Land Health: protecting soil health, biodiversity and native species.
- Supply Chain Traceability: The identity of the wool is maintained from farm to final product.
- Credible Certification: A professional, third party audits each stage in the supply chain.
- Confident Communication: Only products with 100% certified wool may carry the RWS logo.
