CTCOObjetTextile
Kingly is one of Europe's leading promotional textile manufacturers and one of 52 GOTS-certified sock producers worldwide. We are the best in terms of our design service, production speed, and delivery. The company is committed to leaving a better environmental footprint, and we have created the world's first zero-waste sock knitting facility with 100% traceability.
Following the huge success of its sustainable socks, Kingly is launching fully customized clothing manufacturing with eco-friendly fabrics starting February 15, 2023. The company will begin producing custom-made T-shirts, polo shirts, boxers, sweatshirts , and many other items! All these products are made in Europe with GOTS organic cotton, Eurocotton, and recycled polyester according to the Global Recycled Standard (GRS). Traceability is 100% guaranteed thanks to sustainability reports and transaction certificates!
Recognizing that we are at an important crossroads, my team and I are dedicated to providing the best sustainable and environmentally friendly products.

Several International Awards
The Bulgarian Ministry of Labor and Social Policy has recognized Kingly as the most sustainable company. Kingly won first place in the "Ecology" category at the 2022 Annual Socially Responsible Strategic Management Awards. Previously, our sustainability and innovation efforts were recognized with promotional gift awards for our recycled socks (2020), GOTS organic cotton socks (2022), sustainable textile essences (2022), and our latest creation, clickable socks (2023). Our upcycled cotton socks and GOTS organic cotton socks were selected in the "Sustainable Product of the Year" category at the 2022-2023 BPMA Product Awards.
Certifications and Traceability
Kingly proves that all its products are eco-warriors: the brand is SMETA Pillar 4 audited, and its GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certification has been renewed. Kingly is the only GOTS sock brand in the UK. The certification guarantees environmentally friendly organic production, supported by socially responsible and ethical employment; from fair wages to health and safety in production and supply chains. The brand is accredited to the ISO 14001 environmental standard, as well as ISO 9001 and ISO 4500 standards. Each product is tracked using BCome's "Cradle to Gate" platform, which empowers clothing companies. When the unique QR code is scanned, it generates the sustainable score of the specific eco-friendly product.
Recycling and Energy Savings
The fashion industry is one of the world's biggest polluters. Its environmentally harmful activities contribute to the deterioration of our planet's health. Recognizing the real threat, Kingly was the first to introduce recycled textiles to the promotional market. Each customer can calculate the number of liters of water and energy saved and the carbon emissions reduced, allowing them to visualize the positive impact they could have with their next order of eco-friendly products.
At the end of 2022, Kingly launched the Kingly Upcycled project , which aims to recover used fibers to create new products and to raise customer awareness about recycling and repurposed design.
Kingly – A brand you can trust.
