About the brand
Established in the 1960s, Engel is one of the original champions of untreated organic merino wool clothes. The brand’s philosophy, which they have pursued from the start, is to provide their customers with high-quality, ecologically compatible, feel-good products which can be bought with a clear conscience and out of conviction. All of Engel’s products are certified organic and produced in Germany meeting the highest ecological standards that can currently be achieved in the textile industry.
All Engel garments are made of natural, biodegradable fabrics that do not pollute soil, air, or water. Engel sources their wool from merino sheep raised in Argentina that are kept in their natural environment and raised to have a healthy and stress-free life. All metal components used are free of nickel, and any other materials stem from natural renewable resources. They also avoid the use of substances that are harmful to health or the environment during the entire garment production process. All the dyes used are free from heavy metals and free from harmful AZO-dyes.
Engel is committed to fair, safe employment and to fair wages, not only in their own company but at every stage of the garments’ production.
