Sustainability / Product & design
With our 75 years of history, our goal is to craft timeless designs and future classics.
Our design philosophy is based on timeless, functional and high-quality products that can bring joy to different users over time. Sustainability considerations are embedded in the everyday work of all Marimekko teams and across different stages of the process, from design and product development to material choices and designing for combinability within and across seasons.
We use rigorous quality management processes to ensure the quality of our materials and the durability of our products. Before we launch a new product, it undergoes thorough testing to meet our demanding quality standards. Our tests include fabric shrinkage, colorfastness, and abrasion resistance. We aim to keep the share of quality claims of sold products at or below 0.5% – that’s less than 1 in 200.
