Ethical & Environmental Responsibility

It seems that ethical and environmental responsibility is being spoken about in every area of Textile these days and rightly so.
 
At The Ministry we take this responsibility seriously “We come with nothing and we go with nothing” we leave this planet to our children and our children’s children.
 
               Therefore we have implemented an ethical and environmental policy throughout the company to bring this to the forefront of our business.
 
No matter how small an effort you make, if you change the awareness in others and they take action to be more understanding of our ethical and environmental responsibility, then this will snowball!
 
It only takes a minute to make a change !
