First bluesign conference

13/07/2009

Switzerland-based industry textile standard bluesign technologies is to hold the first bluesign conference for its system partners. The conference will take place July 14-15 in St Gallen, just ahead of the OutDoor fair in Friedrichshafen.

The motto for the conference will be ‘Gain Trust - Take Responsibility’ and more than 100 participants are expected to attend the two-day event.

The objective of the independent bluesign standard is to offer a reliable and proactive tool for the entire textile production chain, from raw material and component suppliers who manufacture yarns, dyes and additives, to textile manufacturers, to retailer and brand companies, and to consumers.
