Haglöfs, the Swedish outdoor brand, has joined the Fair Wear Foundation (FWF) as part of its ambition to become a front-runner in terms of sustainability. The FWF is an independent organization that aims to improve labor conditions for workers in the garment industry, around eight basic standards stemming from international agreements on labor and human rights. The membership implies that Haglöfs' suppliers will be requested to follow the FWF guidelines and their facilities will be inspected by FWF representatives. Haglöfs is already a member of Bluesign.
