Spesialproduksjon – YB Design
Spesialproduksjon av produkter har blitt en økende del av You Brand sin virksomhet. Våre designere gir dere god hjelp og assistanse ved utarbeidelse av produkter tilpasset hver enkelt kunde og budsjett. Det kan ofte være små endringer som kan gjøre produktet litt mer spennende, som f.eks. ulike fargekombinasjoner, kontraster og sømmer. Ved bestillinger utenfor vårt vanlige sortiment, blir det utført sourcing ved å sende et eksemplar av kundens vare som ønskes produsert til Østen. På den måten kan vi enklest finne riktig leverandør i forhold til pris. Dersom det ikke eksisterer et eksempel på den ønskede varen, vil utarbeidelse av skisser bli gjort av våre designere i samarbeid med kunden slik at resultatet blir etter kundens ønske. Det er utallige muligheter innen spesialproduksjon, enten om man velger et standard produkt eller man ønsker å finne på noe helt nytt og spennende.

Innenfor spesialproduksjon er det kun fantasien som setter grenser.


In english:

You Brands is a wolesaler of profiling textiles, gifts and promotional items. Our products are sold by our distributors and retailers for further processing such as printing, embroidery, embossing and engraving.

We sell textiles and promotional items to professionals. You Brands was founded in Skien in 1989 as a trading company. From 1996 the company’s entire focus has been directed at the promotional industry. Sales have been rising nearly all the time, and the company has been profitable throughout the 25 years that it has been in operation.

You Brands has been active in the Danish market since 1997.
It started first through the Danish subsidiary TextilBasen AS followed by the acquisition of Camus AS in 2006 in order to strengthen our position in the Danish market. You Brands Denmark supplies sizes up to 6 and 7 XL and has helped to increase the extent of our range.

You Brands Denmark has its head office in Holbæk, together with a showroom and a 3,000 sq. m warehouse. In the Nordic countries alone, we have several offices and departments that provide services other than textile production. We have a dedicated web developer, several designers and staff who work in their own, specialised fields, e.g. specialised production. We have a separate photographic studio for product photography, so that we can continually produce new and exciting products. All our printed matter is developed in-house by our marketing manager, our buyers and our designers.

In addition to the head office, main warehouse and showrooms at central locations in Norway and Denmark, the company extends even further. Collections are produced in factories in China, Indonesia, Bangladesh, India, Vietnam and Portugal. We have our own representative offices associated with the different production sites, and frequent and thorough checks are made prior to shipping products.

Our products are used when entertaining and for work clothing and it is crucial that they retain consistent, hard-wearing properties. All factories are quality approved by staff from Norway, who travels to the factories to carry out inspections, and also check production, quality and working conditions. Our office in Asia is responsible for the daily checking of all production in China. You Brands has no ownership interests in the production companies. Instead, we lease production-capacity in approximately 25 different factories in China, Indonesia, Bangladesh, India, Vietnam and Portugal. By renting instead of owning, there is greater flexibility with regard to changing the production site, when conditions dictate this. This gives us the option, at any time, to produce new, quality products in the best factories.

ENVIRONMENT & ETHICS
Environment & ethics are important issues within textile production. We are bound by a code of conduct, which is an agreement between the supplier and the manufacturer. You, as a customer, can be confident that we are constantly working to maintain this. Together with suppliers and manufacturers in the respective countries, we are working together towards a common goal to develop working conditions, protect human rights, and contribute to reducing environmental pollution.

WORKING CONDITIONS & ETHICS
Statutory working hours, wages and a ban on child labour are important features when we select manufacturers. Products bearing the YOU - CAMUS - MOMENTI label are produced in factories that comply with ethical, legal and moral standards.

OEKO-TEX Standard 100
The Oeko-Tex Standard 100 is an international certification system for textiles that sets requirements for, among other things, chemical and heavy metal content and substances used in textile production that are harmful to health. Piece goods that are used in the production of You and Camus items should be approved in accordance with the Oeko-Tex 100 Standard. In accordance with this, only
AZO-free colours will therefore be used. In addition, random samples are often taken and sent to SGS to test for illegal contents.
