Isko is a premium denim brand based in Turkey. Isko will use the SAC’s sustainability metrics tool, the Higg Index, to drive environmental responsibility across its supply chain. Isko will contribute both data and resources to support the Higg Index, which gauges environmental sustainability and drives supply chain decision-making to better efficiency and sustainability impact.

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 currently more than 160 members of the SAC, including Adidas, C&A, Gap, H&M, Kohl's, Levi's, Macy's, Nike, Puma, REI, Target, and VF Corporation. The collaboration shows how industries can join hands and take significant steps forward in value chain performance. The effort also aims at driving better product sustainability over time.

Isko is part of the Sanko group, a multinational holding company characterised by a solid and well-established presence in the textile industry. Isko Denim is one of the world’s leading denim producers with 1,500 high tech automated looms, global distribution of employees and a production capacity of 250 million meters per year and a portfolio that includes more than 25,000 products.
