Product Information

Our restricted materials list is comprised of materials that will only be used if they reach a certain ethical standard.

Unlike conventional cotton, the organic cotton farming process does not use synthetic pesticides, insecticides, fertilisers or GMO crops. The crops are predominantly rain fed too, which means the negative environmental impacts of growing cotton are minimised. To reach our target, we’ve identified the materials we hope to replace with more sustainable alternatives. This is an ongoing discussion, being helped along by life cycle-assessment data and reports. Some of our most-used materials include cotton, wool, polyester, leather and regenerated cellulosics (a fancy name for fibres like viscose and lyocell). To meet our targets, we’ve set our sights on sourcing leather from Leather Working Group (LWG) certified tanneries and switching our cotton to organic, recycled or Better Cotton Initiative (BCI) cotton. We also pledge to source recycled polyester as well as organic, recycled or responsible wool.Wool can be certified as organic if the sheep are farmed in humane conditions and not exposed to synthetic chemicals used on the land. With organic wool, the process of turning fleece into yarn uses fewer chemicals than conventional wool, meaning the overall environmental impact is decreased. More than 50% of our carbon impact comes from the production of our products. To reduce our carbon, water and waste footprints, we need to look at our fabric selection and the way we use materials. Overarching Target INGREDIENTS: Butane, Isobutane, Alcohol denat., Propane, Parfum (Fragrance), Diethylhexyl adipate, Limonene, Linalool, Hydroxycitronellal, Citronellol, Citral. Cashmere production has its ties to unregulated animal welfare standards and land degradation. We continue to work hard to ensure all our cashmere is eventually traceable, with increased visibility leading to better working practises. The aim of Better Cotton Initiative (BCI) is to make global cotton production better for the people who produce it, better for the environment and better for the future of the cotton industry. Through education and training, farmers learn more about sustainable production methods, helping them to reduce their environmental impact, use less water and fewer harmful pesticides, and increase their yields and profits.

When we say responsibly sourced cotton at Ted we are referring to cotton that comes from more sustainable and responsible sources. This means the water and chemical use is reduced from farm to manufacture and the farmers benefit from improved working conditions. Responsible cotton includes organic cotton, recycled cotton or cotton sourced as part of the Better Cotton Initiative. We are also stopping the use of alpaca in new developments due to unethical treatment of alpacas in some farms. Ted collections will be free from alpaca fibres from AW21 and onwards.

Questions & Answers

In accordance with the CITIES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species) and IUCN (International Union for the Conservation of Nature) list, Ted Baker prohibits the use of materials from endangered species No animals will ever be slaughtered solely for use on a Ted Baker product. All skins on our products, for example, must be by-products of the meat industry. We do not use any skins from animals that have been boiled or skinned alive. As well as this, we do not use Karakul, Slink or other leathers that are from unborn animals. Our third-party partners are permitted to use responsibly sourced feather and down products, providing they have been certified to the Responsible Down Standard (RDS) or have been certified as recycled by GRS or RCS. Ted Baker insists that no cotton sourced from Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan finds its way into our products. This is because of documented reports of industry-wide, systematic human rights violations, including the use of child labour and forced labour in the harvesting of cotton. No ifs, ands, or buts: we do not, and will not, tolerate these practices. We don't use angora in any of our collections. This is due to the unethical treatment of angora rabbits on some farms.

Wool production requires land for grazing sheep, as well as energy, water and chemicals to convert the wool into a finished and useable fibre. By using wool waste collected from factories or woolly jumpers at the end of a products life, we can eliminate these processes and minimise the environmental impact along the way. Virgin polyester and polyamide (aka nylon) are made from crude oil which is a limited resource. Large amounts of energy and water are required to convert crude oil into a synthetic fibre. By using recycled alternatives, the raw materials and energy needed to produce them are reduced. Recycled Polyester and nylon are made from plastic waste, most commonly water bottles. The plastic waste is cleaned, crushed and melted to then be spun into recycled polyester and nylon yarn. This process uses less energy and helps stop plastic waste from ending up in landfills. INGREDIENTS: Butane, Isobutane, Alcohol denat., Propane, Parfum (Fragrance), Diethylhexyl adipate, Linalool, Hexyl cinnamal, Coumarin, Limonene, Eugenol, Benzyl alcohol, Citronellol.Mulesing is a cruel practice that can still take place in the farming of sheep to prevent flystrike, mulesing free wool ensures this practice has not taken place and the health of the sheep has been protected. Instead of carrying out mulesing the farmers take a progressive approach to farming and land management as a prevention. At Ted we are working with our suppliers to phase out the practice of mulesing in our collections. Recycled cotton can either be sourced from pre-consumer or post-consumer textile waste. By using recycled cotton, we’re able to eliminate the farming, harvesting and ginning processes. In turn, this helps to reduce the use of raw materials, water, chemicals and energy. Ted Baker pledges to ensure 100% of our collections will be made from responsibly sourced materials by 2030.

From AW21 Ted will start sourcing Alpaca and Mohair through responsible means. For Mohair, this is through the Responsible Mohair Standard, and for Alpaca, through the Responsible Alpaca Standard. INGREDIENTS: Aqua (Water), Glycerin, Caprylic/capric triglyceride, Isononyl isononanoate, Cyclopentasiloxane, Sodium polyacrylate, Cyclohexasiloxane, Phenoxyethanol, Polysorbate 20, Acrylates/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer, Caprylyl glycol, Parfum (Fragrance), Diethylhexyl adipate, Sodium benzoate, Ethylhexylglycerin, Tetrasodium EDTA, Aloe barbadensis leaf juice powder, Hexyl cinnamal, Benzyl salicylate, Limonene, Potassium hydroxide, Citronellol, Coumarin, Alpha-isomethyl ionone. Animal welfare is incredibly important to us at Ted. We have a strict Animal Welfare and Responsible Material policy (link to policy) which specifies the minimum requirements we set for our suppliers when sourcing animal derived fibres. There are also some materials that we simply won’t use. By this, we mean a list of banned materials including those that are not sourced or used under any circumstance, in any of our products. All our suppliers must comply with the banning of these materials.INGREDIENTS: Sodium palmate, Sucrose, Sodium palm kernelate, Aqua (Water), Sorbitol, Glycerin, Propylene glycol, Sodium lauryl sulfate, Alcohol denat., Parfum (Fragrance), Diethylhexyl adipate, Benzyl salicylate, Hexyl cinnamal, Tetrasodium EDTA, Coumarin, Limonene, Sodium hydroxide, CI 61570 (Green 5), CI 19140 (Yellow 5), CI 14700 (Red 4).
