Supply chain complexity

The textile supply chain is more complicated than you may think.

Our example of the ‘bluesign® product’ – Altis Women softshell jacket in black shows that true teamwork is needed here. Our interactive image reveals how 12 main suppliers work together with a further 54 suppliers, resulting in this outstanding JACK WOLFSKIN item at the end of the supplier chain.

Indeed, it is of paramount importance that we not only know all the steps within the supplier chain, but also to ensure that the manufacturing process is sustainable. Consequently, the majority of our suppliers are bluesign® system partners – enabling us to guarantee that the manufacturing of textiles and components is carried out responsibly.
