Production
THE DESIGN
We design small collections in Barcelona of timeless garments, wardrobe essentials, and original prints with limited units to ensure that there are no surpluses in production and to be able to adapt to your own demand.
Nuestro principal objetivo es ofrecer prendas cómodas y suaves que te permitan sentirte muy a gusto en tu día a día desarrollando cualquier actividad.
Creamos diseños fáciles de llevar cuidando al máximo los detalles: con patrones muy trabajados, dónde cada tejido seleccionado y la colocación de las costuras son clave para obtener una prenda La Comet.
Our main objective is to offer comfortable and soft garments that allow you to feel very comfortable in your daily life carrying out any activity.
We create easy-to-wear designs taking maximum care of the details: with highly crafted patterns, where each selected fabric and the placement of the seams are key to obtaining a La Comet garment.
THE CONFECTION
We produce 100% of our textile collection in Europe.
We are committed to essential and comfortable garments that are suitable for any season and that last over time.
THE PATTERNS
We create intelligent patterns, designed so that by combining the cut, fabric and design elements they can adapt to all types of bodies, even those garments designed as one size fits all.
On the other hand, during the cutting and sewing process, thanks to the technology implemented we manage to fit the pattern with the fabric in such a way that 97% of the textile is used.
THE FABRICS
As of today, 80% of our collection is made with sustainable fabrics of natural origin and 10% from recycled fabrics, especially cotton, linen, viscose and polyester, and our intention is to reach 40% by 2026.
THE PRINTS
All our printed garments are made with an innovative digital printing technique.
The benefits of this technology are lower water and energy consumption:
Saves water
up to 80%
Reduces by 40% the
carbon footprint
60% less chemical discharges into water
Consumes 69%
less energy
Furthermore, with this printing method we avoid production surpluses since it is printed according to the design pattern and only what is needed for each garment.
PROXIMIty
MEDITERRANEAN MADE
98% of our suppliers are local, they are located in Europe, most of them in Italy within a radius of up to 1,000 km from our headquarters in Esplugues de Llobregat.
The proximity to our suppliers allows us to make constant in-person visits to supervise that quality and sustainability standards are maintained in the processes and our products.
TRANSPORTING PRODUCT FROM ASIA REPRESENTS 7.5 TIMES MORE CO2 EMISSIONS THAN FROM EUROPE.
HUELLA DE CARBONO
Our production and supplier selection processes reduce our CO2 emissions by 40% each year.
Within our Sustainability plan, one of our main objectives is to continue reducing our carbon footprint until we become a Carbon Neutral company by 2050.
