1+ in the Family

1+ In The Family are passionate about high quality and beautiful fabrics and continue working each season to integrate sustainable and responsible practises in all their manufacturing processes. The brand does not believe in fast fashion. Preferring quality to quantity they produce minimalist and versatile clothes for babies, that are made to last. Only producing garments ordered by retailers results in minimal wastage, and of there are any items left in stock they are given a second life via outlet or charity programs.  100% of production is in the Barcelona province with local manufacturers using OEKO-TEX or REACH certified fabrics that have been created in Europe. The close proximity to their manufacturers allows 1+ In The Family to closely monitor the control of ethical practises and to ensure good working conditions, following strict European rules. Nearby manufacturing also minimises transportation by sea or air thus reducing pollution.
