ETHICAL MANUFACTURING

Doing what’s right — every step of the way.

Pivot Point believes the quality of its products should be matched by the well-being of the people who make them.

From sourcing materials to crafting professional educational hair goods, ethical standards and responsible manufacturing are an important part of the Pivot Point difference.

“Never compromise integrity, ethics, or doing what is right.”
- Leo Passage, Pivot Point Founder

CRAFTED WITHOUT COMPROMISE

Quality products. Responsible manufacturing. Respect for people.

Pivot Point proactively implemented SA8000® certification at its hair-manufacturing facilities to help ensure its educational hair products are produced under recognized standards for worker rights and workplace conditions. 

This commitment means looking beyond the finished product to consider the people, processes and working conditions behind it.

WHAT SA8000® MEANS

NO FORCED OR CHILD LABOUR
Standards designed to protect workers and guard against forced and child labour.

SAFE WORKING CONDITIONS
A commitment to healthy and safe working environments.

FAIR & EQUAL TREATMENT
Zero tolerance for discrimination and unfair disciplinary practices.

WORKER RIGHTS
Respect for workers’ rights, including freedom of association.

LOOK FOR THE TAG

Every Pivot Point hair-manufactured product proudly displays the SA8000® tag.

It's a visible reminder that the product was manufactured in a facility committed to internationally recognized standards for social accountability and worker protection. 

THE PIVOT POINT DIFFERENCE

Choosing professional tools isn't only about performance.

Pivot Point believes professionals, educators and students should be able to choose educational products that reflect their values — products designed for learning and made with consideration for the people behind them.
