ADVANCING SUSTAINABILITY STANDARDS IN LUXURY INTERIORS VALUE CHAIN
July, 2025
PILLARS: ENVIRONMENT
MATERIAL DRIVERS: CLIMATE, ANIMAL WELFARE
THE CHALLENGE
Enso Timeless believes design, quality and sustainability complement each other. With deep roots in both textile manufacturing and luxury hospitality, the brand faces the ongoing challenge of advancing its environmental sustainability throughout its value chain while maintaining the high standards of quality and design that its consumers expect.
CONSIDERATIONS
When considering how to advance environmental sustainability, it is essential to evaluate and identify both risks and opportunities across the supply chain. With stakeholder demand for transparency continuing to rise, implementing supply chain collaboration can enhance trust as well as offer operational resilience.
APPROACH & ACTIONS
With Positive Luxury’s guidance, Enso Timeless implemented a range of initiatives to set new standards within the business and its supply chain:
Identified and defined supply chain risk and opportunity procedures to inform future development and collaborations
Updated its supplier questionnaire to incorporate questions concerning its environmental sustainability including tracking GHG emissions, and providing transparency on hazardous materials
An Animal Welfare policy to ensure that all animal-derived materials used are sourced responsibly, with strict adherence to best-practice, while prohibiting the use of fur, leather, and endangered species
RESULT
By partnering with Positive Luxury Enso Timeless has strengthened its sustainability credentials and operational resilience. The brand proactively identified and addressed supply chain risks, enhanced environmental transparency with its supplier questionnaire, and implemented animal welfare standards. These actions led to measurable sustainability performance increases – 17% for climate and 18% for animal welfare – in Positive Luxury’s ESG+ assessment. As a result, the brand has also built greater trust with partners and customers and has reinforced Enso Timeless’ position as a leader in sustainable luxury.
