AEPC launches Indian Apparel Industry Sustainability Program

Apex body Apparel Export Promotion Council (AEPC) has launched Indian Apparel Industry Sustainability (AISA) Program to promote sustainable practices in the apparel industry. A guidance tool on sustainability was released by Ashok G Rajani, Chairman Apparel Export Promotion Council along with Ashok Kumar, and Energy Economist at Bureau of Energy Efficiency.

Rajani said there is a strong emergence of sustainability requirements as an important competitiveness tool. It is a great opportunity for us to differentiate ourselves in the global market and offer a sustainable value chain. He thanked C-Kinetics for developing a comprehensive guide book on the various aspects of optimisation. Through AISA they intend to inculcate and encourage this process-where just doing is not enough but bringing measurability and self-impact assessment is also important.

AEPC seeks to promote greater participation and inclusiveness of the apparel industry in sustainability initiatives. The program is an endeavour to recognise and take affirmative action to counter the challenges that restrict the apparel industry from taking bigger roles in global market on account of noncompliance to sustainable parameters. The initiative aims to be a network of individuals and institutions committed to increasing sustainable practices across various segments of apparel sector.

AEPC, as the apex body of the exporters, aims at providing a platform where apparel manufacturers and exporters can turn to – for all the necessary information and handholding needed for being sustainable in a holistic way. It has prepared a guidance tool on sustainability which will provide guidance to companies on how they can align their strategies as well as measure and manage their contribution to achieving the sustainable goals.
