Intertek joins Sustainable Apparel Coalition

The Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC) is known for its sustainability measurement tool, the Higg Index. The index drives environmental responsibility and supply chain decision-making to improve efficiency and sustainability. The Higg Index is an open source, indicator-based tool that allows suppliers, manufacturers, brands and retailers to evaluate materials, products, facilities and processes based on environmental and product design choices.

There are nearly 160 global brands, retailers and manufacturers, as well as government, non-profit environmental organisations, and academic institutions that are collectively committed to improving supply chain sustainability in the apparel and footwear industries. There are currently more than 150 members of the SAC, the majority of which are global brands and retailers including Adidas, C&A, Gap, H&M, Kohl’s, Levi’s, Macy’s, Nike, Puma, REI, Target, and VF Corporation.

Intertek, a leading provider of quality solutions to industries around the world, has joined the Sustainable Apparel Coalition. Intertek will contribute both data and resources to support the Higg Index. Intertek performs a vital role in helping clients achieve environmental sustainability and tackle climate change through a broad range of solutions. These include addressing immediate environmental and social concerns to the development of strategic portfolio initiatives, such as stakeholder engagement programs and ethical supply chain management tools, and reporting initiatives.
