Working together for the sake of our Earth - Singtex's gratitude

Singtex was founded over 3 decades ago; according to Confucius: "I stood firm at the age of 30", which means that one must achieve independence by 30 and know what one can contribute to society. Singtex is grateful for society and our friends, hence our goal is to attain sustainability and environmental protection, and we insist in producing only eco-friendly fabrics. Despite the arduous journey ahead, we hope everyone can continue to support Singtex and make an effort to make the Earth a better place.
