Sustainability is the only path to a promising future for the fashion industry and the preservation of our planet. Being a sustainable fashion brand is no longer just a trend—it’s a necessity of our time.

Las Gringas this concern. We review our processes and are constantly seeking new solutions that minimize the environmental impact of our supply chain.

We are proud to be eco-friendly. We are nature’s friends. We focus on producing our clothing using 100% natural and biodegradable materials. We use certified sustainable fabrics, as well as high-quality fabric scraps that would otherwise be discarded, and we prioritize fibers from renewable sources, such as cotton and viscose.

Certifications

Amni Eco Soul - CO2 Control®

In our beachwear line, we use Amni Soul Eco®, the world’s first biodegradable yarn, which decomposes within three years when disposed of in landfills. These fabrics are free of toxins that harm human skin and help regulate body temperature and wick away sweat.

GOTS - CU1016503

GOTS is an internationally recognized standard that promotes an environmentally and socially responsible textile supply chain. As such, the GOTS standard not only focuses on sustainable production but also establishes strict rules and guidelines for all companies throughout the value chain.

With the GOTS label, customers can be sure that the product was manufactured in a socially responsible and environmentally conscious manner.

To achieve this goal, the GOTS standard has established all the ecological and social criteria that companies must meet.

The use of fibers from organic farming, the exclusion of toxic or environmentally harmful substances, and the introduction of a minimum wage are just a few examples of the mandatory criteria set by GOTS.


Better Cotton Initiative (BCI)

The Better Cotton Initiative (BCI) is a nonprofit organization founded in 2005 that works to improve global cotton production for farmers, the environment in which it is grown, and the future of the sector. It promotes awareness and guidance among stakeholders in the cotton supply chain regarding the importance of fair labor practices and social and environmental responsibility in the field. These actions are essential to meet the growing demand in the globalized market for cotton produced according to proper sustainability criteria (market transparency and cotton traceability). In Brazil, as an international institution, BCI’s initiatives are carried out in partnership with ABRAPA (Brazilian Association of Cotton Producers). Currently, all of our cotton suppliers are BCI members.

*BCI is not a certification, but rather a guarantee of cotton traceability.

EcoVero™


Lenzing™, the world’s largest producer of viscose fibers, headquartered in Austria, manufactures EcoVero™ fibers . The company uses a traceability technology that enhances product transparency regarding raw material sourcing practices, confirming that its fibers are derived from wood sourced from sustainably managed forests certified by independent textile industry associations. EcoVero™ fibers are manufactured through an eco-friendly production process with low emissions and minimal environmental impact—including on rivers—significantly lower than that of conventional viscose production systems.

Tencel

Tencel It is extracted from the cellulose of certified eucalyptus trees, which require little water to grow. It was developed and certified by Lenzing™. The production of this fiber is considered a closed-loop process, meaning that everything is recycled and reused, thereby avoiding waste. Tencel clothing has a distinct feel. Compared to cotton, you can tell that it is soft and smooth. Its absorbency is also much higher, making the fabric ideal for everyday clothing. The nanofibrillar structure is innovative and helps prevent the feeling of dampness, inhibiting bacterial growth—meaning it has antibacterial properties. It also has a longer lifespan without losing quality.
