We are thrilled to announce our latest milestone at Leadership & Sustainability, as we achieve the highest Leader-level membership status within the Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC). At our core, we are committed to pushing the boundaries of sustainability in the textile and apparel industries.
Our dedication to SAC runs deep, reflecting our core values and a wholehearted endorsement of SAC’s initiatives. We actively participate in SAC’s programs, including, for example, Higg FEM verifications, Higg BRM verifications, and SLCP verifications. To date, we’ve conducted more than 2000 FEM verifications, 70 BRM verifications, and over 300 SLCP verifications. Our journey with SAC began in 2016, and this longstanding partnership underscores our unwavering commitment to their mission. Notably, our CEO, Karin Ekberg, holds the distinction of being a founding member of SAC. During her tenure at Adidas, she played a pivotal role in establishing and evolving the Sustainable Apparel Coalition.
Through our affiliation with SAC, we are connected with over 280 renowned global brands, retailers, manufacturers, government entities, non-profit environmental organizations, and academic institutions spanning 36 countries. These partnerships reflect a growing dedication to enhancing sustainability throughout the supply chain within the apparel, footwear, and textile industry. At Leadership & Sustainability, we are more than members; we are allies in a shared mission. Our commitment extends to meeting SAC’s expectations and aspiring to exert a substantial influence on responsible industry practices.
Join us in this journey towards a more sustainable future, as we continue to lead the way in the textile and apparel industry’s transformation. Together, we can make a meaningful impact on the world’s sustainability landscape.
