Sustainability

FSM

At FSM, responsibility is built into the way we work, from the materials and technologies we choose to the way we manage energy, resources and production.

Through the FSM Better Project, we continuously improve our practices to reduce environmental impact and develop more efficient and responsible ways of producing.

FSM Better Project

Trying, Everyday to be Better

The FSM Better Project brings together actions designed to reduce our environmental impact and improve the way we work. From offices and buildings to production and customer support, responsibility is integrated across different areas of FSM.

3D FASHION DESIGN

Less sampling. More efficiency.

By integrating 3D technology into the development process, FSM can visualise fabrics, patterns, fit and silhouettes before moving into physical production. This reduces physical sampling, shipments and material waste, while enabling faster adjustments and more efficient collaboration.

SOLAR ENERGY

Solar panels currently provide around 30% of FSM’s energy, reducing reliance on conventional energy sources.

RESPONSIBLE SOURCING

Certified materials and carefully selected suppliers support more responsible choices from the beginning of the production process.

WASTE REDUCTION

Office and industrial waste is separated and managed with a focus on reducing waste across our operations.

FABRIC REUSE

Whenever possible, textile materials are given a new purpose, extending their useful life and reducing unnecessary waste.

3D FASHION DESIGN

3D technology reduces the need for physical samples, shipments and material use, making product development more efficient. Small changes across every stage can make a meaningful difference.

SUSTAINABILITY

RESPONSIBLE PRODUCTION,
BUILT INTO THE PROCESS.

From the choices we make at the beginning to the way we manage resources throughout production, responsibility is part of how FSM works.
