OUR JOURNEY TOWARDS A SUSTAINABLE TOMORROW 💚
CEANNIS started it's sustainability journey in 2017 and the most important thing to us, when it comes to sustainability, is transparency. We believe in openness throughout the production chain for a sustainable future. Therefore, we make sure to visit our factories and suppliers every year. Though the biggest parts of 2020 & 2021 we were unable to visit the factories due to the pandemic, but we are hoping that we will be able to visit them again during the fourth quarter of 2022.
We´re also constantly working on our close relationships with our suppliers and development of sustainable products. This is a long journey and we´re far from perfect but we´re constantly striving to improve our work. We hope that everyone will join us on this journey.
If you have any questions regarding CEANNIS and sustainability, don't hesitate to contact us.
“We believe that by empowering our community with options, visibility and transparency, we hope it will serve as inspiration to make further changes towards a more sustainable tomorrow"

CEANNIS produces quality products in a carefully thought-out designs with maximum durability and longevity. Major part of CEANNIS products are manufactured in China, but all of our producing partners, regardless of country, commit to comply with the CEANNIS Code of Conduct. This code includes clear rules on working conditions, production, the environment and quality. All CEANNIS producing partners follow our list of banned chemicals as well as the European REACH regulation. To ensure this, we visit our partners regularly. We also work with local partners who perform regular control visits to ensure that CEANNIS Supplier agreement is followed.
OUR MATERIALS
At CEANNIS we thoughtfully select fabrics and materials in order to create designs that are fashionable, practical, affordable and of great quality. All materials are still as of today handpicked by the Founder Ann-Lousie Andrén.
We want everyone that purchase a CEANNIS product to experience a long-lasting journey. We are constantly working to improve our production and offer more environmentally-friendly materials.
More detailed information on each material we produce in our collections will shortly follow here.
SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY AND ETHICS
Another important part of CEANNIS CSR work includes social responsibility and our Code of Conduct includes clear guidelines on the conditions of our workers. Among other things, all CEANNIS employees, as well as our producing partners workers, must be offered a safe workplace. Child labor and forced labor are strictly prohibited as well as work that may harm a person's health. The salary should be reasonable and employees should be entitled to vacation and sick leave. Equal rights and opportunities is a must regardless of age, sex, nationality, political opinion, sexual orientation, pregnancy, disability or union membership. It is important that our workplace is characterized by diversity. Our employees and partners are of different nationalities, and work in various parts of the world, which, of course, plays a crucial role in CEANNIS growth. Within the company, we strive for even sex, gender and age distribution.
PACKING & TRANSPORTATION
One of CEANNIS's goals is that our transportation should always be as economically and environmentally sustainable as possible. Therefore, we actively work to minimize airfreight. This is only used in exceptional cases. In order to further shorten transportation distances, we try to use locally produced materials as much as possible in the country where the manufacturing takes place. CEANNIS sustainability strategy also means that all employees, within the company and with our production partners, should promote sustainability enhancements specifically within their areas of responsibility.
