21/04/2011
Not-for-profit organisation Worldwide Responsible Accredited Production (WRAP) has announced that it will has announced that it will exhibit at the inaugural Texprocess, the new section at Techtextil in Frankfurt this year, focused specifically on machinery, IT systems and other technology for processing textiles for the garment manufacturing sector. The event takes place from May 24–27.

WRAP president and chief executive, Steve Jesseph, its compliance certification manager, Hong Mei, and compliance coordinator Anthony de Lima will represent the organisation at the exhibition.

On May 26, Mr Jesseph will also give a presentation titled Creating a Sustainable Supply Chain at the Texprocess Forum. The Texprocess Forum will consist of a series of presentations given by industry leaders with expertise in sourcing, sustainability and social standards. As more and more buyers and consumers are interested in socially and environmentally compliant products, it is necessary for manufacturers to understand the importance of sustainable supply chain in the global context.

WRAP uses 12 principles, covering workplace standards, local laws and workplace regulations which encompass human resources management, health and safety, environmental practices, and legal compliance, to audit companies across the textile supply chain.
