Sustainability action guidance

S.A.G – sustainability action guidance LLP Corporate Sustainability Reporting/ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) reporting is an effort to systematically disclose an organisation’s activities, commitments, targets, and their fulfilment towards environmental, social, and governance issues based on a recognised framework and standards.
GRI (Global Reporting Initiative) issued sustainability reporting standards, including sector-specific standards, which are widely used around the world. 

Sustainability is no longer a choice for the textile industry; it's mandatory. Recognizing this, Bharat Tex 2025 is set to prioritize showcasing circularity and sustainability as cornerstones.

The event will serve as a great initiative for the industry stakeholders to collaborate, harnessing engagement/cooperation and action to integrate sustainable practices across the long textile value chain. By emphasizing sustainable innovations, circular economy models, and ethical, responsible sourcing, Bharat Tex 2025 as a noble cause aims to balance economic growth with environmental responsibility.

India's textile sector is a vital economic pillar, employing millions and driving exports, and is a great example of the "Make in India" vision of our Hon'ble PM, Narendra Modi. While rapid growth has brought environmental challenges, the industry is embracing a sustainable future.

India has a long history of eco-friendly textile production, from handwoven khadi to organic cotton. These time-old practices inform the industry's focus on ethical fashion and circular economy principles.
