Industry collaboration is critical for driving a positive impact for people and planet.
Our industry creates a wide range of materials across an extensive – and often shared – supply chain. We work to develop industry-wide standards and tools through industry associations, such as the Apparel and Footwear International RSL Management (AFIRM) Group, the Zero Discharge of Hazardous Chemicals Foundation (ZDHC) and Cascale. We collaborate with member brands, suppliers, and organizations to scale clean chemistries across the supply chain.
Apparel and Footwear International RSL Management Group (AFIRM) is a collaboration of leading brands across the apparel and footwear supply chains focused on advancing the global management of restricted substances in apparel and footwear.
Zero Discharge of Hazardous Chemicals (ZDHC) is a collaboration between member brands and associations to advance the textile and footwear supply chain towards reducing the use of hazardous chemicals.
Cascale, previously known as the Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC), transforms businesses through groundbreaking tools, collaborative partnerships, and trusted leadership for the textile sustainability industry.
