Insights

  • Saitex's human-centric practices, inclusive collaborations, and dedication to environmental preservation have been highlighted in its 2022 Impact Report.
  • The company has been acknowledged as 'Best for the World in the Environment' by B-Corp in 2022.
  • The report also showcases Saitex's technological advancements, including applied AI and machine learning.
Saitex, the leading circular manufacturing system and platform based in Vietnam and Los Angeles, remains committed to a harmonious relationship between humans, nature, and technology, as per Saitex’s 2022 Impact Report. The company was recognised as ‘Best for the World in the Environment’ alongside Patagonia by B-Corp in 2022, further validating its commitment to sustainable practices.

The report showcases Saitex’s transformative journey, as the innovative company continues to redefine the way denim is produced and reused, the company said in a press release.

With teams across the world, Saitex has evolved into a comprehensive ecosystem that includes Saitex Garment manufacturing facilities in Vietnam and the US, Saitex Mill, Stelapop upcycling, Rekut, and Atelier and Repairs. This interconnected network of entities embodies Saitex’s core principles of respect, protection, empowerment, and collaboration.

The first section of the 2022 Impact Report shines a spotlight on Saitex’s unwavering commitment to human-centric practices. The organisation believes in providing equal work opportunities, celebrating diversity, and fostering inclusion at all levels. Saitex ensures fair labour practices and maintains a healthy working environment for its associates. Continuous investments in training and community well-being initiatives empower and enhance the lives of Saitex’s dedicated workforce.

One of the highlights of Saitex’s human-centric approach is its successful collaboration of Rekut—a brand and manufacturing division composed of differently-abled workers—with Madewell and IKEA. Together, they have launched innovative products that have captured the market’s attention and exemplify Saitex’s commitment to driving inclusivity and positive change in the industry.

Saitex’s dedication to environmental preservation is another key aspect of their 2022 Impact Report. The vertical organisation recognises the fundamental importance of soil and water and actively takes proactive steps to minimise its ecological footprint. Saitex carefully selects materials, implements holistic design principles, and utilises closed-loop water systems, all contributing to its transition towards a circular economy.

Technological advancements play a pivotal role in Saitex’s operations. The organisation leverages cutting-edge innovation and emerging technologies to enhance its efficiency and product offerings. Saitex’s smart factory, powered by applied AI, machine learning, and automation, ensures speed to market, transparency, and traceability throughout its value chain.

The 2022 Impact Report showcased Saitex’s data-driven decision-making, vertical integration, and launch of fabric and product facts in a nutritional label format, empowering designers to make informed choices.

While the 2022 Impact Report primarily focused on Saitex’s apparel manufacturing facilities in Amata industrial park, the organisation remains committed to providing a detailed impact overview for all its entities including their facilities in Los Angeles and Thailand. Saitex recognises the importance of reliable data and will continue to defer reporting on other entities until sufficient information is available.

Saitex’s 2022 Impact Report stands as a testament to the organisation’s relentless pursuit of sustainable manufacturing practices, fostering positive social impact, and embracing technological advancements. With this report, Saitex reaffirms its commitment to transparency, accountability, and innovation.
