Copenhagen-based sustainable underwear and basics brand, founded in 2015 and sold direct-to-consumer across Europe. Portugal is its largest production country, and the brand publishes its factory list — naming Skins in Camarate and Impetus in Apúlia as partner facilities.
Organic Basics publishes a dedicated page for each factory it works with. In Portugal, textile production runs through Skins in Camarate, just outside Lisbon — a modern intimates and jersey specialist — while Impetus in Apúlia (Barcelos) handles production with an in-house water-treatment system and a leading position in garments made from recycled materials.
The brand’s Portuguese footprint reflects its core pitch: certified organic and recycled fibres, EU labour standards, and short, auditable supply chains. Roughly half of its final-stage manufacturing sits in Portugal, split between the Lisbon-area intimates cluster and the northern Barcelos/Minho textile belt.
Organic Basics shows how Danish direct-to-consumer brands use Portugal as their quality-and-ethics production base — publishing factory names as a selling point rather than hiding them, and giving Portuguese suppliers like Skins and Impetus visibility with Nordic consumers.
Fractio helps Nordic brands build sourcing and local partnerships in Portugal — without the overhead.
