Vigga Svensson heißt die Frau hinter Katvig™ Children’s Clothes. Katvig wurde auf Anhieb zu einem Klassiker unter allen Eltern dieser Welt. Besonders am Herzen lagen ihr Produktionsvorgänge, die mit unserer Umwelt im Einklang stehen. Mit der Kollektion Sommer 2012 kommt Katvig dem Ziel schon sehr nahe. 99% der Kollektion wurden mit dem Smiley ausgezeichnet – für umweltfreundliche Stoffe, Biobaumwolle, R.O.C. und recyceltes Polyester. Ganze 70% wurden nach den Standards von GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) zertifiziert. Das ist ein sensationelles Ergebnis für eine Firma, deren Produktpalette breit ist. GOTS stellt nämlich strengste Anforderungen an Produktion, Arbeitsbedingungen, Umweltverträglichkeit und Transport.
Katvig Vigga Svensson from Denmark is the woman behind the Katvig™ children’s clothes that have become an instant classic among parents around the world. When she got the idea for the clothes it was hard for her to reconcile her desire to protect the Earth with the production methods used. In SS12, Katvig is very close to reaching their goal of being 100 % sustainable. 99 percent of the collection has been awarded with a smiley, which means that the clothes are made of environmentally friendly fibres such as organic cotton, R.O.C. and recycled polyester. A full 70 percent of the collection has also been certified by third party organisations, almost all of them according to GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard). This is exceptional for a clothing company like Katvig that has such a wide range of products. The GOTS certificate has the most stringent requirements for production, labour conditions, environment, and transport.
Katvig will unseren Kindern die Welt so überlassen, wie wir sie vorgefunden haben – oder besser! Die Firmenphilosophie ist: mit der Natur, mit allen, die unsere Kleidung herstellen, und den Kindern, die sie tragen, in Einklang zu stehen. Dafür brauchen wir Unternehmen, die Anderen zeigen, wie dies technisch und auch finanziell machbar ist. Katvig ist sehr stolz darauf, ein solches Label zu sein.
Katvig’s mission is to hand over our planet in the same condition as we received it, if not better; and their philosophy is not to be a burden – to nature, to those who manufacture their clothes, and to the children wearing them. But in order to get there, companies must set the path and show other companies that not only it is technologically feasible, but also financially feasible. Proudly, Katvig has become such a company.

The new collection Katvig™ ONE matches everything: stripes, apples, two-day-old baby skin, and nature. ONE is a brand new collection of must haves for the little ones. It’s discrete, it matches, and it’s affordable as well as environmentally friendly. ONE is the first piece of clothing you buy for your child and the last piece to go. And it’s more than just incredibly soft; the quality is second to none and stays that way wash after wash, playground after playground.
