ENSO TIMELESS
Enso Timeless is a collection of home textiles. It provides lightweight, breathable, and rich fabrics for homes and hotels driven by a love for textiles and design. Enso Timeless combines these two concepts, constituting its philosophy and essence: from textile production and product selection to customer service. Enso Timeless is a product of three decades of experience in spinning and weaving, and a decade in the hospitality sector. Their hospitality division has been creating bed linen for luxury and boutique hotels in the GCC since 2014. After requests from hotel guests, the team decided to enter the luxury retail world and created a home collection.
SUSTAINABILITY PURPOSE
Enso Timeless has sustainability at the heart of its ethos. Enso Timeless believes that design, quality, and sustainability complement each other. Once a brand focuses on all three, a higher-end product is produced that anyone would be proud to own. Enso Timeless focuses on integrating sustainable practices throughout its value chain, from packaging made from the waste of production to selecting non-toxic dyes, the brand is always focusing on sustainable, ethical, and cruelty-free alternatives. Enso Timeless’ vision is to have a circular model of business and they understand that it is an ongoing process that involves research, implementation, and regular assessments to do their part.

REAL CHANGE IN ACTION
MEMBERSHIPS, ACCREDITATIONS & CERTIFICATIONS
Enso Timeless have worked closely with their suppliers since the business began to ensure they only work with suppliers who have obtained ISO 9001 and ISO 14001. In addition, for those suppliers that are relevant, Enso Timeless demand them to be OEKO-TEX 100 certified. This ensures their suppliers and materials are consistently meeting minimum standards.
CLIMATE
Working with Positive Luxury, Enso Timeless began calculating their scope 3 carbon emissions and incorporating this data in their supplier selection criteria. Enso Timeless then went further by collaborating with their tier 1 suppliers to reduce their GHG emissions, particularly within transportation and distribution. In the coming months and years, they will endeavour to calculate more of their scope 3 emissions across their entire supply chain to have a full picture and mitigate emissions as much as possible. Enso Timeless has launched a sold product collection point to reduce the transportation costs and emissions of sold products. Currently, this is local to their headquarters but they aim to roll this out further, in time.
CIRCULARITY
At Enso Timeless, circularity is built into their product and packaging design processes and is truly embedded throughout the business. Enso Timeless focus on utilising reusable fabric shopping bags and packaging where possible as well as ensuring bed linen packaging is made using waste from the bed linen production processes.
DIVERISTY, EQUITY & INCLUSION
Enso Timeless pride themselves on having a very comprehensive DE&I policy, covering learning & development, hiring practices and prohibition of any form of harassment or violence. They ensure local and international regulations and standards are met and they expect the same from their suppliers, as documented in their Supplier Code of Conduct.

WHY POSITIVE LUXURY
Positive Luxury is adding purpose to the word 'luxury'. To be butterfly mark certified for us would mean to move beyond the idea of luxury home textiles as indulgence and become a part of reframing luxury and becoming known as a brand that provides great quality, comfort, and design with ethics and sustainability at the heart of it.
