Reducing impact on people and the planet

Measuring Our Collective Progress Toward Sustainable Production

By openly sharing the progress and challenges, we aim to lead by example, fostering trust and driving meaningful change throughout the industry – join the system!

Together with our bluesign® SYSTEM PARTNERs, we are on a transformative journey.

It is our partners’ dedicated hard work in reducing their environmental impacts (eKPIs) that this report celebrates.

These numbers are proof that effort brings reward, not for us, but, better still, for the planet and its people.

Our collective dedication to reduce the environmental impact of textile production reflects our shared vision for a sustainable future.

We are determined to continue the journey, and with your support, having more partners join us on that journey of transformation.

Thank you allowing us to join you on this journey, for your collective effort, your continued partnership and most of all for your shared determination to make a positive difference to our planet and its people.

measuring our environmental impact

We use four key environmental performance indicators (eKPIs) to measure our collective progress and drive continuous improvement. These eKPIs provide a clear means of assessing our environmental footprint, ensuring that we remain accountable to our sustainability goals and transparent with our stakeholders. By focusing on these metrics, our partners can collaboratively contribute to a more sustainable future, highlighting the substantial benefits of our unified efforts in eco-friendly production practices.

Together, we are transforming sustainability into reality, one impactful step at a time 🌍

The bluesign® SYSTEM drives responsible resource use in manufacturing. Quantifiable environmental impact is crucial in the textile supply chain. Data is essential for bench-marking, transparency, and improvement.

bluesign® provides a secure platform for manufacturers to validate and manage key e-KPIs—water, energy, chemicals, emissions, and waste—through self-declaration and annual onsite verification. These metrics are showcased in an annual impact report, highlighting resource-saving opportunities, supported by tech analysis and investment plans.

For brands and retailers, bluesign® offers a secure overview of their e-KPIs, with an annual report aggregating data from their network. This helps monitor, manage, and showcase environmental achievements.
