Hela continuously strives to be a responsible manufacturer and has introduced multiple sustainability initiatives to reduce its environmental impact. Multiple plant sustainability and environmental compliance certifications demonstrate these efforts. In particular, Hela has obtained both the Global Recycled Standard (GRS) and Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS). Additionally, Hela has achieved Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi) verification, further solidifying its commitment to aligning with globally recognised climate action frameworks and reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in line with the Paris Agreement.
