NEW YORK - A cross-industry collaboration has published a report exploring the increasing raft of sustainability-related legislation affecting the textile sector, and in particular, how global apparel suppliers can comply with new regulations and mitigate potential risks.
The report, from denim industry trade body the Transformers Foundation and sustainable development consultancy Giz Fabric, along with several apparel suppliers including Epic Group, Norlanka, Shahi Exports and Simple Approach, aims to provide guidance for manufacturers, particularly those established or headquartered outside what it calls the "global north".
