Design & Sampling Stage
Our Flipin Linen range was designed in our studio in Pimlico, London. The entire team work together to collaborate on ideas, colours, fit, construction and detail for all of our products.
The P40 Flipin' Linen range is a strong improvement on our original Flipin' Linen range, with better stitching, construction, and fit around the thigh and hip. While many companies use flax material as their 'linen', our P40 linen uses proper linen, blended with GOTS certified cotton for durability and softness.
Our continuous improvement is a testament to our commitment to slow fashion and products that last the test of time. If you have any feedback about our products at all, please email hello@tomstrunks.com!
Weaving
The linen-cotton fabric is woven and finished by Auro Textiles, a unit of Vardhman Textiles Limited, at their mill in Baddi, Himachal Pradesh. Vardhman is one of India's largest vertically integrated textile manufacturers, producing yarn and fabric from fibre to finished cloth.
Audits & certifications
ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 are held across all Vardhman processing units. The mill also holds Oeko-Tex Standard 100 Class 1, ZDHC Supplier To Zero (Foundational), and a Higg FEM 3.0 score of 80 for the Auro Textiles unit specifically. The cotton content carries a Better Cotton mass balance claim, confirmed by a BCP transaction record dated April 2026.
Environment
The Baddi mill runs on carbon neutral biomass-based fuel and has 13.1 MW of solar energy capacity. Wastewater treatment includes two zero liquid discharge plants, and dyeing uses salt-less technology, reducing effluent load by 20%.
Our products only use azo-free dyes to reduce environmental impact.
People
Female labour welfare officers are present on the shop floor around the clock. Vardhman was the first textile mill in India to join the P.A.C.E. programme; 1,619 women have graduated to date.
Cut & Sew
The products are cut and sewn in two neighbouring factories in Delhi, India, part of 15 manufacturing facilities operated by Radnik Exports Global Pvt. Ltd. Founded in 1973, Radnik employs 15,000 people directly and has an annual production capacity of 18 million units.
Audits & certifications
Radnik holds the following independently verified certifications, all confirmed during onboarding for this order:
- ISO 9001 — quality management
- SMETA social audit — completed for the D-227 facility
- SLCP and BSCI — social and labour compliance
Environment
65% of Radnik's electricity comes from renewable sources, with a target of 100% by 2030. The factory operates eco-wash machinery that reduces water use by 70% compared to traditional washing, and has restored two ponds with a combined annual water recharge potential of 311.7 million litres. To date, 12,600 trees have been planted, offsetting an estimated 273,420 kg CO₂e. Radnik has committed to a 72% reduction in GHG emissions by 2032 (SBTi-aligned) and net zero by 2040.
People
Both cut and sew facilities — D-201 and D-227 — sit within Radnik's Sector 63 estate in Noida, Uttar Pradesh, and together handle the full P40 production process: fabric intake, cutting, stitching, finishing and packing. Both sites are covered by Radnik's ISO 9001:2015 quality management certificate (issued by DNV, valid to January 2029). Our detailed social compliance data on file relates to D-227, which was independently audited under amfori BSCI in January 2025 (overall rating B, audited by SGS) and independently verified under SLCP in October 2025, achieving a 99% accuracy index. At D-227, 338 workers are employed across five floors — cutting in the basement, stitching on the first and second floors, finishing and packing at ground level. Of the 13 supervisors, 10 are women. 56 workers are domestic migrants travelling from states including Assam, Bihar, Jharkhand and Madhya Pradesh. The single daily shift runs 8:30am to 5:00pm Monday to Saturday; no worker exceeded 54 hours in any given week during the assessment period, and all overtime is voluntary, paid at 200% of the standard rate. All wages are paid by bank transfer and meet Uttar Pradesh's statutory minimum. The facility provides subsidised transport and meals, an on-site crèche, and a medical room with a full-time nurse and visiting doctor twice a week.
Finishing and Freight
Each finished garment is individually folded, sleeved and labelled with a printed sticker carrying the item name, colourway, size, SKU barcode and a QR code linking to this page! Garments are then packed into cardboard cartons.
Every single item has a unique QR code so that it can be tracked throughout the factory process from fabric storage through cutting, sewing, labelling and finishing. In line inspections for quality are also completed.
The order shipped in two consignments. The first was trucked up to Mumbai airport, flown to Glasgow then trucked to our warehouse in Northampton. The second was trucked from the Noida factory to Mumbai for shipment by sea from Jawaharlal Nehru Port Mumbai to London Gateway port.
