TEXAS – Apparel brand JC Penney has partnered with the Apparel Impact Institute (Aii) to improve the sustainability performance of its energy, water and chemical usage.
Joining the likes of Target, Gap and Levi’s, JC Penney will enroll in the Aii’s Clean by Design programme, which it trialled back in 2015 with select suppliers in China.
“As the world seeks to build back with better solutions, JC Penney is ‘leaning in’ to this opportunity to improve existing facilities in the ways that will have the most positive impact for both sustainability and production cost,” said the Aii’s president, Lewis Perkins.
