LONDON - Social enterprise CottonConnect has published its first-ever code of conduct aimed at raising standards in the crucial ginning stage of the cotton supply chain.
The result of a six-year programme involving more than 100 gins, multiple industry stakeholders and independent verification bodies, it is hoped that the implementation of the 'Responsible Business for Gins Code of Conduct' will help gins assess processes and raise standards to align with best practices for the sector.
