Bangladesh’s Epyllion Fabrics wins Sedex sustainability award

Epyllion Fabrics was named as one of 10 winners across three categories at the Sedex Sustainability Awards, which were presented on March 22 as part of Sedex’s Xplore Sustainability Conference.

Businesses were honored during the awards ceremony for their initiatives to promote social and environmental sustainability in international supply chains.

The prize for technology and innovation in the Asia-Pacific area was accepted by Epyllion Textiles. It was emphasized how the corporation used a variety of methods to reduce carbon dioxide and sulphuric acid at scale.

Epyllion Fabrics is based in Bangladesh, which was established in 1994. The business creates ready-to-wear apparel, and its textile section includes knitting, fabric and yarn dyeing, washing, and a fabric testing facility.

A panel of judges from the Better Buying Institute, &Wider, the United Nations Global Compact, and representatives from all six continents assessed the company’s victory.

Sedex CEO Jon Hancock, said that it’s a delight and a pleasure to honor these outstanding businesses and their efforts to advance sustainability in supply chains. They firmly believe that both smaller-scale projects and those of more established brands deserve to be honored. It is incredibly encouraging to see how their winners, as well as all of their entrants, are bravely pursuing fresh alliances, projects, and ingenious answers to sustainability-related problems.

The awards host Katie Prescott, technology business editor at The Times, added that the tales behind the awards presentation are the extent to which these companies are going to ensure their supply chains are as transparent as possible, even when doing so frequently highlighted some uncomfortable facts.

600 presenters and delegates from brand, business, and expert domains will be present at Sedex’s Xplore Sustainability Conference to discuss the important ESG problems, solutions, and opportunities that businesses are currently experiencing.
