2025 report findings
The 2025 report covers the eligible European cotton route and Kingly’s EcoVadis assessment, including its four assessment themes. It records EcoVadis Platinum and BPMA Gold for Elite Premium Classic Crew and identifies areas where stronger measurement is needed.
A closer cotton journey
≈1,300 km
The model covers eligible European cotton stages through sock manufacture and finishing.
Includes transport between those stages. Other fibres, packaging and customer delivery are excluded; distance alone does not quantify carbon savings.

Recycled yarn options, suitable textile remnants, upcycling and waste segregation support further use. 101 Uses of Repurposed Denim, published in January 2025, makes that thinking approachable.
The report also covers inclusion, workplace policies, safety and ongoing community partnerships. It distinguishes Kingly’s own contributions from partner outcomes, and records one work-related accident in 2025.
Environmental savings and learning outcomes from the books are not quantified in the report.

Read the full articleReporting boundaries
Achievements, missing measurements and future priorities are presented separately. These distinctions matter when using the report in a proposal.
Measurement and assurance
The report uses company records, dated public sources and management confirmation. It is not independently assured. Corporate Scope 1, 2 and 3 gross emissions were not measured for 2025, and consolidated water figures were unavailable. No company-wide zero-waste or landfill-diversion percentage is claimed.
Certificates, assessments and scope
Each record applies to its stated entity, site, activities, products and validity period. The supplied 2025 GOTS and GRS records expired on 27 April 2026; check the applicable issued record for current coverage.
EcoVadis theme scores are Environment 91, Labour & Human Rights 93, Ethics 86 and Sustainable Procurement 83. No corruption incidents were identified in 2025, based on management-confirmed findings. Product studies, company ratings, audits and awards have different boundaries.
Plans and later developments
The Climatewise collaboration and the 9 April 2026 Open Day are subsequent developments, separate from 2025 results. The report’s action schedule contains proposals for management approval, rather than achieved results or approved commitments.
