The global apparel and textile industry is an important one – valued at more than three trillion dollars. This particular industry is best positioned to have a tremendous impact on climate change. WEAR 2016 is Canada’s Sustainable Business Conference for the Apparel & Textile Industry, and on November 1, 2016, Intertek expert Mr. Matt Allen, Vice President of Strategic Development for Health, Environmental & Regulatory Services (HERS) will discuss how to eliminate both hazardous chemicals and social harm from your supply chain during his presentation on Fashion Detox: Cleaning Supply Chains.
Mr. Allen states, “Corporate social responsibility encapsulates both environmental and social issues to provide a measure of ethical and sustainable development that our manufacturing & supply chain clients can leverage to differentiate themselves from their competitors. As a trusted partner in social accountability, Intertek is committed to using our global team of chemical & sustainability experts to help our customers drive their triple bottom line of people, planet and profit.”
