In 2020, Cone Denim partnered with Oritain to become the first denim mill in the world to use forensic science to trace our material sourcing. Five years later, this partnership has expanded and influenced the denim industry, and beyond, to advance traceable sourcing practices. Oritain tests products and verifies their origins using forensic science. This helps brands and consumers buy confidently, knowing they support responsible, ethical practices. Through the extended partnership over the years, Cone Denim continues to assure our customers that denim produced by the company is authentic, true to source, and complies with our cotton sourcing policies. It allows Cone to confidently reaffirm our origin of ethical sourcing and supply chain transparency. Learn more about our partnership with Oritain at conedenim.com/traceability
