We work directly with factories who manufacture our products. We ensure that any suppliers are FSC certified to assist us in ensuring that certain standards are met throughout our supply chain. 

Naked Paper and our factory are certified B Corps, and have committed to a declaration on employee welfare as part of our certification.
