At iné, we have opted for 100% European production made in Portugal. In the global production landscape, the "Made in Portugal" label stands out significantly, offering an attractive alternative to "Made in France". Not only recognized for its artisanal quality and traditional know-how, but also for its growing commitment to sustainable ecological practices, this label deserves special attention for those concerned about the origin and environmental impact of their purchases.
1 | Tradition and Artisanal Quality
Portugal has a long tradition in the textile and footwear industry, with centuries of expertise passed down from generation to generation. Portuguese artisans are renowned for their meticulousness and attention to detail, resulting in high-quality finished products. Whether clothing, footwear, or accessories, each piece is often crafted with meticulous care, combining tradition and innovation to meet the highest standards.2 | Sustainability and Ecological Practices
One of the most attractive features of “Made in Portugal” is its commitment to sustainable production practices. Many Portuguese companies adopt environmentally friendly manufacturing techniques, such as using recycled materials, reducing waste, and implementing energy-efficient production processes. As a result, products made in Portugal often have a lower environmental impact compared to their counterparts produced in other parts of the world.3 | Innovation and Adaptability
In addition to its artisan tradition, Portugal also stands out for its innovative spirit and adaptability to current market trends. Portuguese brands are renowned for their ability to integrate new technologies while preserving artisanal manufacturing methods. This translates into products that combine modernity and authenticity, meeting consumer needs while respecting quality and sustainability standards.4 | A Thoughtful Alternative to “Made in France”
Compared to "Made in France", "Made in Portugal" often offers more competitive prices while maintaining equivalent or even superior quality in some areas. This combination of quality, durability and attractive price makes it a choice alternative for consumers who are concerned about their budget and the ecological footprint of their purchases.
In conclusion, by opting for "Made in Portugal" products, iné chooses to support traditional know-how while contributing to environmentally friendly production practices.
