Yes. Kingly earned EcoVadis Platinum in 2024 and 2025. The medal recognises the company’s sustainability management and places it in the top 1% of companies assessed in the relevant period. It is a company rating, rather than a certification of every product.
Yes. Kingly holds GOTS, GRS, ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certifications within their applicable scopes and undergoes SMETA four-pillar audits. SMETA is an audit methodology, rather than a certification. Relevant OEKO-TEX® yarn documentation is available where applicable. We confirm the documents and scope relevant to your order.
We can provide relevant certificates, product specifications and traceability records, with cradle-to-gate life cycle assessment information and digital product passports where available. Cradle-to-gate assessments cover the stated stages up to the factory gate, rather than the product’s entire life. QR codes can link to the applicable product records.
Ask your Kingly representative for the documentation relevant to your chosen product and procurement requirements.
You can meet us at selected trade events, arrange a factory visit or book a video call. Contact our team for current event details. We have also presented our work at the Bulgarian Embassy in London.
We have welcomed diplomatic visitors, including the British Ambassador to Bulgaria, and presented our work in embassy settings. These occasions let diplomatic and business audiences examine our manufacturing, sustainability, education and community achievements firsthand.
Our documented awards and milestones:
We open manufacturing to the next generation through school and college visits, internships and practical workshops. Students explore knitting, garment printing and design, then discover how socks, yarn cones and textile offcuts can become something new.
Our two published books extend that learning beyond the factory. Activities include a December 2024 workshop with 33 Gianni Rodari School students, combining manufacturing demonstrations with creative reuse.
Practical experience helps young people discover skills, understand how products are made and recognise the value of materials. We want them to leave with ideas, confidence and a clearer view of opportunities in manufacturing and design.
We donate our surplus stock and also manufacture socks with custom logos and designs for charities, hospices, community organisations, Rotary clubs, other clubs and people in need.
Our support includes Barnardo’s UK, community centres, hospitals, homeless shelters and other charitable initiatives. Through thousands of donated socks and purposefully made products, we help meet practical needs and support the identity of organisations serving their communities.
Both put our founding values into practice: respect for people, education and responsible use of resources. Donations, learning opportunities and community partnerships extend our contribution beyond the products we manufacture.
Yes. Published project accounts, workshop photographs and partner acknowledgements document specific activities and contributions. You can explore the people, projects and outcomes behind our work.
Yes. For standard promotional sock orders:
We agree the quantities in each size before production. For other quantities or specialised styles, ask us to confirm the available combinations.
A supplier’s retail brand on the tag or knitted into the sock continues advertising that supplier after delivery. Remove the tag, and the knitted branding remains.
At reorder time, that name gives your customer a route to bypass you. Your branding and contact details help customers return to you for future orders. Kingly follows your agreed branding instructions without adding its promotional logo.
We recommend your logo and “Supplied by [your company name]” on the sock tag, alongside your website or contact details. This gives customers a clear route back to you, supported by the quality and service you deliver.
Yes. We handle your artwork, customer information and commercial details confidentially. Direct deliveries follow the branding, presentation and dispatch instructions agreed with you.
Our core range offers different compositions and constructions under each reference:
Our specialised range covers workwear, cycling, trekking, mountaineering, rugby, football and other applications.

Yes. Our range includes Naked Elite, Snug Fit, neon, fluffy, fine merino, ultra-thick merino, children’s and baby socks. Ask us which materials and certification options apply to your chosen style.
Our standard offer includes custom knitted socks in up to six colours, including the background, a free full-colour branded sock tag and an individual certified compostable bag. Your quotation confirms the inclusions for your chosen reference.
We can provide the certification and disposal guidance for the bag supplied with your order, including the composting conditions it requires. Compostable packaging should be disposed of through the appropriate collection system; it should never be littered.
Cotton, organic cotton, merino, recycled, upcycled and specialist yarns. GOTS-certified and GRS-certified options are available where applicable; we confirm the certification and composition for your chosen product.
Pantone® colour matching is available, with more than 2,700 shades to choose from. Selected custom socks allow up to six knitted colours, including the background. Special dyeing requirements, quantities and lead times are confirmed in your quotation. Our innovation department can assess sourcing or developing other yarns for your brief.
We finish the socks according to their yarn and construction, with washing, steaming and boarding as applicable. We check the finished product against the approved specification to support consistent sizing and fit.
Some dimensional change can occur during washing, depending on the material and care conditions. Follow the product’s care instructions and ask us for a sample if fit is critical.
Each sock tag carries the wash and care instructions for the product. Following them helps preserve its fit, colour, appearance and useful life.
Women’s, men’s and an intermediate “one size for most” for promotional orders. We confirm the corresponding EU and UK size ranges for your chosen product and can manufacture specific sizes to your requirements.
Your agreed branding. Kingly does not add its promotional logo to your B2B products, tags or packaging. Your order should strengthen the customer relationship you invested in building.
