  • (1888PressRelease) July 11, 2023 - SGS, the world’s leading testing, inspection and certification company, has published a Consumer Compact article looking at some of the ways the textile industry can monitor and reduce its impact on the environment.

    One cotton t-shirt requires raw materials, chemicals for processing and dyeing, energy for manufacturing and transporting and 2,700 liters of water. This is unsustainable and consumers and regulators are now looking for global supply chains to deliver more sustainable products.

    SGSmart CARES is an effective tool for monitoring chemical management along global textile, apparel, leather and footwear supply chains. This advanced digital platform goes beyond compliance to provide an effective, practical solution for analyzing chemical and environmental management systems.
