How to "clean up" the textile supply chain

For some brands and consumers, sustainability is merely a trend to boost sales or to appease one’s conscience; for others it’s a true commitment to reducing the environmental footprint and protecting both the environment and the human race against harmful substances. With the bluesign® system, there is a practical and proven solution that allows the textile industry to "sustainably" clean up the entire textile supply chain. In this seminar, bluesign technologies and selected bluesign® system partners will give a detailed insight using best practice examples.
