Lindex animal rights policy

Lindex supports animal rights and works to ensure that the rights of animals are considered in all parts of the processing chain. We continuously monitor to see what we can do more in the animal rights issue.

Fur and leather

We have a restrictive policy concerning products made of fur and leather. Real fur must not appear in Lindex assortment.

Leather which appears in Lindex products must originate from animals that are bred for meat production. 

Mulesing

Lindex does not accept mulesing, the procedure that is practised on merino sheep to prevent flystrike and does not accept clips as an alternative. Therefore Lindex has directed our purchasing to suppliers who can provide the mulesing-free merino wool. The aim is to step up the pressure on sheep farmers who still practise mulesing. Lindex suppliers must be able to ensure that their wool does not come from sheep that have been exposed to mulesing. 

Feathers

Lindex does not use feathers from wild endangered or non-meat producing birds. We only use suppliers who can guarantee that the feathers come from meat-producing birds.

Cosmetics

We do not permit any animal testing of cosmetic end products.
