Goucam – Crafting with Integrity

At BELLAURA, we carefully select our production partners to ensure they reflect our values of quality, care, and responsibility. Goucam is one of our most trusted collaborators – a Portuguese manufacturer that combines traditional craftsmanship with environmentally and socially conscious production.

With a forward-thinking approach, Goucam integrates responsible practices across every step of the process, from material sourcing to ethical labor standards. Their dedication is reflected in globally recognized certifications that ensure traceability and accountability at every level.

Responsibility and Ethical Standards

Goucam’s certifications highlight a deep commitment to people, animals, and the environment

• GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) – Guarantees compliance with strict ecological and social criteria throughout the supply chain
• Organic 100 / Organic Blended (OCS) – Verifies the use of organic cotton with full transparency
• Responsible Wool Standard (RWS) – Ensures animal welfare and sustainable land management
• Recycled 100 / Recycled Blended (RCS) – Confirms the use of certified recycled fibres
• Better Cotton Initiative (BCI)* – Supports more responsible cotton farming
• SMETA (Sedex Members Ethical Trade Audit) – Confirms ethical working conditions, fair wages, and safe workplaces

These certifications align with BELLAURA’s values, helping to ensure that every piece is made with care for both people and the planet. *While BCI is not a certification but an initiative, it promotes more responsible cotton farming practices, focusing on reduced water use, improved soil health, and better working conditions for farmers.

Beyond Certification – A Holistic Approach

Goucam’s commitment extends beyond certifications. They invest in advanced, low-impact techniques and continuously improve their processes. Their initiatives include

• Minimising fabric waste through efficient cutting and upcycling
• Conserving energy via modern machinery and renewable sources
• Reducing water use through filtration and recycling systems

Their holistic mindset positions Goucam as a leader in modern, responsible textile production.

At BELLAURA, we believe that responsibility is a shared journey. Through our partnership with Goucam, we are able to bring pieces to life that reflect not only beauty and quality – but also integrity.

Together, we shape a future where fashion is timeless, refined, and consciously made.
