Primark and Tesco-owned F&F have joined the Zero Discharge of hazardous Chemicals (ZDHC) Group, which is now made up of 20 brands.

From these, a board has been selected and will consist of: Frouke Bruinsma, G-Star Raw; Charles Dickinson, Primark; Monica Gorman, New Balance; Philipp Meister, adidas; Stefan Seidel, Puma; Nathaniel Sponsler, Gap; Graham Storrie, Esprit; Joyce Tsoi, H&M;  and Scott Vitters from Nike.

Last month, the group refined its focus to concentrate on four key areas: manufacturing restricted substances lists and conformity guidance; research; audit protocol; and wastewater quality.

The group was launched in 2012 to tackle environmental footprints from the apparel industry.
