The FWF Code of Labour Practices contains eight elements, which are based on United Nations and International Labour Organization principles:
Employment is freely chosen
There is no discrimination in employment
No exploitation of child labour
Freedom of association & the right to collective bargaining
Payment of a living wage
No excessive working hours
Safe & healthy working conditions
Legally-binding employment relationship
FWF regularly verifies the implementation of these labour practices through factory audits and worker interviews both onsite and offsite, and through annual ‘Brand Performance Checks’ which assess how well each member’s management policies support the Code of Labour Practices. FWF publicly reports on the progress of member companies towards implementation of the Code elements.
PFC-Free
Per- and polyfluorinated chemicals (PFCs) are a family of human-made, fluorine-containing chemicals. They have long been used to add water and stain repellent properties to technical fabrics. PFCs can harm the wearer of the garment and damage nature. Incredibly resistant to breakdown, these pollutants have been found across the globe; they can remain in the environment for many years after release. In response, a growing number of PFC-Free products are being developed, designed to provide reliable water repellency without the use of these harmful chemicals.
WindWall™ fabrics are engineered to greatly reduce the effects of wind chill while providing the flexibility and breathability to stay comfortable without overheating.
WindWall™soft shell products are engineered in fully Windproof and Wind resistant options. Our fully windproof options are our most protective, virtually waterproof and windproof they maintain a comfortable level of breathability in colder weather conditions. Wind resistant options are the most versatile, enhanced with stretch and reduced external air permeability, both breathable and water resistant, making it ideal for a wide range of activities and weather conditions.
WindWall™shell products provide lightweight, wind resistant protection that packs small for on-the-go versatility.
WindWall™fleece products retain the comfort and breathability of traditional fleece, but have been engineered to reduce wind chill for enhanced warmth.
All Products that comply with our WindWall™ standards will be branded WindWall™ and will clearly call out windproof and wind resistant on the appropriate product hang tags.
