Durability

The municipality works with sustainability issues and has a climate and environmental strategy. Procurements must include sustainability requirements. In this procurement, Tanum municipality chooses to procure circulation washing as a contract over six years. This is to use any brand new clothes and bed textiles for as long as the textiles are expected to last. As a further step in the sustainability aspect, we will accept already circulated clothing and bed textiles from the start of the agreement. To facilitate this, the municipality also refrains from having a logo print on the clothes. The clothes that are offered and eventually delivered to the municipality do not have to be brand new.

The municipality also chooses to be more flexible regarding which colors of work clothes we can accept.

The municipality also strives, in collaboration with the supplier, to reduce both twisted garments and forgotten items. All to improve the work environment, rejections, economy and sustainability.
