Innovation & Sustainable product development is the key component of future business and responsible approach towards nature.

Almost 11 years ago, on April 24, 2013, the collapse of the Rana Plaza textile factory building in Bangladesh occurred - a tragedy killing more than 1,100 people and injuring another 2,500 people, making it the fourth largest industrial disaster in history. Fashion Revolution week was initiated to commemorate this tragic incident. It stands against the erasure of history exploitation and injustice in the fashion industry. ARMEDANGELS does not produce in Bangladesh, but we continue to support the NGWF with the sale of our Fash Rev t-shirt, which is fighting for the rights and human dignity of workers in the Bangladesh garment industry through legal means. "People make our products. Because they are made by human hands. Without these people, we wouldn't have a product. And so it is our job to ensure that working conditions are good for people - no matter where they live. And only if we take good care of people, people can also take good care of our planet." - Julia Aruni Kirschner, Director Impact & Innovation

How to Bangladesh become a Global Textile Hub

The denim market in Bangladesh is experiencing significant growth, propelled by three key factors: low prices, improved quality, and high production capacity. Local millers are increasingly adopting new washing and dyeing technologies to enhance efficiency and sustainability in their manufacturing processes. Innovative approaches are driving substantial reductions in water consumption, with many denim millers now using only seven to eight liters of water to wash a kilogram of fabric. This marks a remarkable decrease from the previous requirement of nearly 350 liters per kilogram. These advancements not only contribute to cost savings but also underscore Bangladesh's commitment to environmentally responsible practices. As the denim industry continues to evolve, such innovations will play a crucial role in shaping its future trajectory. Mark your calendars and save the dates for the 17th edition of the Bangladesh Denim Expo! Join us on November 4–5, 2024, at ICCB, Dhaka.
