Social and Environmental Responsibility
Commit to the environment with Cepovett Safety
At Cepovett Safety, Social and Environmental Responsibility is much more than a commitment: it is a fundamental pillar of our industrial strategy. As pioneers in the sustainable workwear sector, we take action every day for the planet and for the men and women who are part of it. Concrete, traceable, and circular solutions for a more responsible textile industry.
At the heart of our approach
Eco-design in textiles
A pioneer in eco-design, Cepovett Safety incorporates circular economy principles at every stage of a professional garment's lifecycle. This approach is made possible thanks to our industrial network and the collaboration of trusted partners.
Sustainable Fashion
We are developing responsible alternatives for each range (knitwear, weatherproof clothing, etc.)
Recycling and recovery
We offer solutions to reduce environmental impact: collection, sorting, recycling, reuse, recovery.
Second-hand clothing
We refurbish and put professional clothing back into circulation: restoration and solidarity redistribution.
Creative upcycling
Each year, we transform fabric scraps into new products (e.g., patchwork tote bags).
Promote sustainable sectors
Choice of responsible raw materials
- Cepovett Safety is a pioneer in fair trade cotton (since 2007), ensuring social and environmental guarantees and a traceable supply chain.

- More than 5% of our collections are eco-designed using innovative and responsible materials.
Local production, reduced impact
Short supply chains Euromed preferred
We place short supply chains at the center of our industrial production, thanks to the proximity of our factories in the Euro-Mediterranean area.
- Industrial production as close as possible to our customers (factories in Southern Europe and North Africa).
- Sustainable reduction of our carbon footprint and optimal traceability of raw materials.
Ethics and transparency
Audited and certified commitments
Our production sites are subject to independent audits (SMETA/SEDEX). We adhere to the principles of the Global Compact to ensure impeccable ethics throughout our entire value chain.
Each piece finds a new purpose. Nothing is lost, everything is transformed.
