Content & Context

Over the last century, water use has grown at more than twice the rate of population increase globally, and it is still increasing in all sectors. The effects of climate change will intensify the risks of droughts as well (1). Industrial water use constitutes a significant component of global water consumption. In the textile industry, specifically wet processes account for large volumes of water consumed. As a consequence, the approach to water management in factories creates a potential risk for workers, surrounding communities and the planet. Let’s find out together what it means to manage water use effectively. 

As a sustainability assessment tool, the Higg FEM measures and benchmarks your facility’s performance holistically. Even better, it provides a harmonised standard and functions as a concrete example for your company’s commitment to sustainability. We want to support you to properly know about the requirements to successfully complete the Higg Facility Environmental Module (FEM) 2020. So that you feel confident when you decide to use the Higg FEM as your prospective tool for transparency and optimization.
