Factory Visit portugal: EUROSAS

EUROSÁS CONFECÇÕES, LDA

We have had some of our collections produced in Portugal for over 20 years. We have been working with the producer EUROSÁS CONFECÇÕES since 2000 - following a merger with another supplier, however, it has been operating under a new company name since 2011. Our T-shirts and sweatshirts are primarily produced at the production site in Góios Barcelos, with Eurosás taking care of the "cutting, sewing & packaging" areas. IRIEDAILY styles account for around 50% of Eurosás' production volume. The suppliers LOPAMA CONFECÇÕES, ESTAMPARIA RODRIGUES & ABREU, PEREIRA & FILHOS and NEIVACOR take care of some of the sewing, printing and embroidery steps.

IRIEDAILY Factory Visit Part 1 - Socisilvas Lda, Maia, Portugal-high_1

FACTORY VISIT 2021

As part of our commitment to transparency and our corporate philosophy as well as our Fair Wear membership, our CSR team conducts regular factory visits to monitor working conditions on site and respond to workers' problems. These visits were accompanied by a camera in summer 2021, allowing us to provide transparent insights into our production in Portugal.

During our visit to Eurosás Confecções Lda, we talk to Mrs. Candida and Mr. Ferreira about the good cooperation and what advantages Portugal has as a production location: the textile industry is well established in Portugal, all materials and skills for the production of T-shirts and sweatshirts are available. Good dyeing, printing and embroidery facilities are at the cutting edge of technology. But most importantly, the "Portuguese are all very honest", as Mrs. Candida aptly puts it. Eurosás Confecções Lda is also GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certified.

You will also get an insight into the production of the suppliers Lopama Confecções, Estamparia Rodrigues & Abreu, Pereira & Filhos and Neivacor, who work with Eurosás in the sewing, printing and embroidery processes.
