The environmental cost of producing and wearing clothes is high. Nearly 20% of industrial water pollution comes from textile dyeing and treatment. Apparel, footwear, and textile production takes place at thousands of factories globally. These facilities play a key role in the overall sustainability of the industry.
The Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC) is a non-profit organization founded in 2011, allying and leading the apparel, footwear and home textile industries for sustainable production. It has more than 200 members, who have committed to the vision of establishing a standard tool to measure sustainability performance for the above mentioned industries so as to produce no unnecessary environmental harm and have a positive impact on the people and communities.
