Acting responsibly – today and in the future

For us at Leineweber GmbH & Co. KG (hereinafter referred to as PNTS), sustainable business means acting economically in harmony with ecological and social responsibility. Our actions are guided by medium- and long-term goals, systematically integrating sustainability aspects into everything we do. As a medium-sized family business, employer, and partner, our goal is to consistently offer our stakeholders a sustainable perspective. This is why sustainability is firmly anchored in our foundation and is a central part of our corporate identity. To live up to this commitment, we place the highest value on the quality, durability, and features of our products. Our long-term, reliable partnerships allow us to maintain a pricing structure that combines fair conditions for our production facilities with an attractive price-performance ratio for our customers. In 2025, we underwent our first comprehensive audit for the Textile Exchange Standards to create even greater transparency for our products. You can find more information about our standards and certifications in the sections 'Recycled Fibers' and 'Organic Cotton.'
At PNTS, we view sustainability as a continuous process. That is why we are constantly working to make our processes, products, and partnerships even more responsible and transparent – so that our customers can feel completely comfortable and at ease in our clothing.

Social responsibility

For us at PNTS, treating everyone affected by our business activities with respect and responsibility is the foundation of every partnership.

Responsibility in the global supply chain

Leineweber GmbH & CO.KG operates in the global competitive environment of the apparel industry, where production processes are highly complex and labor-intensive. We see it as our responsibility to advocate for good and safe working conditions at every stage of our value chain – from our own company to our production partners.

For this reason, we joined the amfori Business Social Compliance Initiative (amfori BSCI) back in 2008. As an independent organization, amfori BSCI is dedicated to improving social standards across various industries. This partnership enables us to specifically promote and protect labor rights within our supply chains. Our requirements for suppliers are based on the amfori BSCI Code of Conduct, which is founded on internationally recognized labor standards. On this basis, our production sites are regularly reviewed by independent auditors. Our goal is to work together with our partners toward the continuous improvement of social standards and to create greater transparency.

The BSCI Code of Conduct

  • No child labor
  • Fair remuneration
  • No bonded labor, forced labor, or human trafficking
  • Decent working hours
  • No discrimination, violence, or harassment

Recycled fibers:

Recycled fibers are obtained from textile waste, which can originate from both industrial waste and pre-loved clothing. By repurposing existing materials, we reduce the demand for virgin raw materials. Our commitment to maintaining the highest standards is confirmed by our successfully completed 2026 re-audit for certified recycled materials, in accordance with the Textile Exchange GRS and RCS standards.

Recycled Claim Standards (RCS)

Items bearing the Recycled Claim Standard seal contain recycled material that is documented throughout the supply chain and verified by independent, accredited certification bodies.

The minimum recycled content is 5%. Our products containing between 5% and 94% recycled material carry the 'RCS Blended' seal. Products with 95% or more recycled material bear the 'Recycled 100' seal.

Simply look for the hangtag on the item or the labeling in our online shop to find all products certified according to this standard at a glance.

Organic cotton fibers:

Natural fibers, such as cotton from controlled organic cultivation, are characterized by the absence of synthetic pesticides - including insecticides and herbicides - as well as genetically modified seeds. This protects the health of workers in the fields and actively contributes to maintaining soil fertility.

Organic Content Standard (OCS):

Transparency for our natural fibers
Items bearing the OCS seal contain natural fibers from controlled organic cultivation - such as organic cotton. To ensure maximum reliability, the origin of these fibers is fully documented throughout the entire supply chain and verified by independent, accredited certification bodies. The certificate specifically refers to the proportion of organic fibers in the final product:

OCS Blended: These products contain between 5% and 94% fibers from controlled organic cultivation.

OCS 100: These items consist of at least 95% organically produced natural fibers.

This clear labeling offers you full transparency regarding the materials used in your clothing. You can recognize these products by the hangtag or the information provided in our online shop.
