The thoughts behind DILLING

Everything we do at DILLING is driven by you, our customer. You are at the heart of it all. We want you to feel unlimited well-being in our clothes, knowing that each product is made from high-quality, natural materials with the upmost care for our animals, our workers, and the environment. We know that you have extremely high expectations of us, and we are humbled by every order you place. Therefore, we exert ourselves every day and set ambitious standards for our production and distribution to give you the best experience possible. 

To be able to provide you with an unparalleled quality and unlimited well-being, we manage and oversee each step of the production. We own most of our supply chain, from the cutting factory to the sewing house and dyehouse. 

Would it be easier to outsource our production to the East? Yes, definitely. Owning our own supply chain is not a walk in the park. It comes with great responsibility and costs. It is complex and it challenges us. It keeps us on our toes, but we go into this wholeheartedly with passion and fire in our eyes. We commit to this 100%. We do not simply accept a compliance document or yearly factory visit stating that everything looks good on paper. 

We can sleep well at night because we know that we have full control of the production process. We always know that the animals have been treated well, where our products are made, and who made them. Animal welfare, environmental consideration, and working conditions all come together. 

What makes me most happy is the fact that all of us at DILLING work together towards this shared goal. Our skilled and dedicated employees at our sewing facility and cutting facility in Lithuania and our devoted and talented employees at our dyehouse, warehouse, and office in Denmark. The beauty of it all is our differences. We all come from various backgrounds and cultures, and we have different skills and competences. The diversity of our employees is an obvious advantage because we all bring what we have to the table and respect each other. When all of this comes together, we are able to provide our products to you, our customer. 

Being 4th generation obviously comes with a huge responsibility. DILLING has been in my family for the last century and one day I will sign over the company to someone else. DILLING is only for loan. So, for me, this is not about maximising profit and selling the company - there’s more at stake here. It’s about building on the existing foundation that has been created generations before me and to be able to pass it on to the future generations to come.
