Environmental & Social Responsibility
WE WORK HARD, WITH LOVE & KINDNESS TOWARDS EACH OTHER & THE PLANET
We are passionate about the environment, the ocean, our planet, and the future of our children.
THE PATH OF SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
Sostter believes that it is part of its corporate and social responsibility to be involved in issues such as respect for people, environment, communities and artistic heritage.
These principles, which have always been part of the brand's activities, find expression in company culture, relations industry associations, supply chain partners and climate change.
PEOPLE - MUTUAL RESPECT, TRUST, RELIABILITY
Sostter is a diversified brand with a wonderful mix of cultures, skills, and nationalities that places people at the heart of everything it does.
SUPPLIER BASE
Sostter take their responsibility seriously to collaborate with ethical suppliers and work with companies that hold the same environmental values. The brand strives to be an honest business, and work closely with a solid supplier base that has worked with the brand since its launch. At the core of the brand is the desire to ensure customers can have full confidence in the brand and the products they are buying. To ensure this, the aim is always to try to manufacture as close to the natural origin of our Italian leathers [the cows!] and to maintain a traceable and sustainable chain of production.

ECO-FRIENDLY PACKAGING
We are committed to using plastic-free, recyclable, or biodegradable packaging where possible. The majority of the packaging we use consists of paper and card. We continue this ethos in our design studios, aiming to be zero-waste and plastic free.
ENVIRONMENT & CLIMATE CHANGE
All suppliers have a transparent relationship with Sostter and as a result they share information of environmental impact and ways to improve. As a result all collaborators have reduced their waste, recycling has increased and new and innovative ways of working with leather and within the fashion industry are always open to discussion.
CODE OF ETHICS
Sostter's Code of Ethics, adopted since 2018 and shared with all employees and external partners, establishes the guiding principles of the brand: mutual trust, reliability, and respect.
