THE RIGHT WAY FORWARD 🤝 At SUNWILL Business we are committed to moving our business forward in the right way; with respect for the environment and the people involved. ❓But what does this mean?  We work on several activities within our supply chain that impact both production and operations, to move the business the right way forward and here are a few: ✅  Reducing overall packaging materials and increasing the content of recycled plastic in our polybags and shipping bags from 80% to 100%. ✅  As a member of Better Cotton, we support initiatives to improve social and environmental aspects of cotton farming. ✅ As a BSCI Member, we base our compliance programme on the BSCI code of conduct which comprises eleven principles for the running of an ethical and socially responsible business. ✅  We carefully choose suppliers that align with our code of conduct and environmental strategy.

In our sector, as well as among legislators, there are many discussions regarding recycling, the concept of circular economy, influencing consumer habits, innovative business approaches, promoting sustainability, and addressing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), among other topics. To collectively minimize our environmental footprint and contribute to the well-being of our planet. Good! What I find lacking in these conversations is an exploration of the root causes behind this remarkable expansion. 1. The primary catalyst for excessive overproduction: Polyester. 2. Allowing unrestricted imports of inexpensive textiles and apparel ever since the WTO lifted its constraints in 2005. Can we also talk about that instead of always addressing the symptoms. #textile #import #polyester

You'll be amazed to know that Intertek partnered with a large fashion brand to set its science-based target and develop their decarbonisation action plan to reduce the emissions of their supply chain by an impressive 42%.

Participated in the 1st National Conference on Recycling in Textiles 2023 organized by #KnowTex,#NTU on 20th Sep, it was truly enlightening! 🧵♻️ Locally, we've been recycling tons of fibers from pre-consumer and post-consumer waste for years in Pakistan, thanks to our incredible local #manufacturers. 🇵🇰 Our initial focus was on cost-efficiency, but now, we're aiming to showcase our recycled materials as #USP along with contribution toward social responsibility on preserving resources on the international stage During the conference, we delved into crucial topics like #traceability, #global regulations, and #futurerecycling technologies. 🌐 The #discussions opened our eyes to the #potential of our #market and the need for certifications to tap into the #EU and #international markets. As the largest player in the market, #Midas Safety has the capacity to recycle a staggering 700 tons per month, transforming pre and post-consumer waste into value-added products like #gloves and #apparels. 🧤👚 It's an exciting time to be part of the textile recycling industry, and grateful to #KnowTex for uniting all stakeholders on this platform. Let's work together towards a more sustainable and circular future! 🌱♻️ #TextileRecycling #Sustainability #CircularEconomy #KnowTex #RecyclingInTextiles #GreenFuture
