ZDHC and Chinese industry body to hold Shanghai conference
16/09/2016
The ZDHC Foundation oversees the implementation of the ZDHC Programme, a collaboration of over 20 leading brands committed to eliminating hazardous chemicals from the textile and footwear value chain. CNTAC is an industry federation which represents all textile related industries in China.
Earlier this year, the two organisations announced a strategic collaboration along with the commencement of CNTAC’s Chemicals Stewardship Initiative 2020, a cross-industry policy framework for the textile industry aimed at minimising the adverse effects of chemicals on human health and the environment.
The joint conference will be held on November 8 in Shanghai.
ZDHC executive director, Frank Michel, said on making the announcement that he expects 1,000 delegates at the event. “Participants will leave with a greater understanding of some of the challenges of hazardous chemical control and gain practical insights on how to overcome these,” he said.
The conference will contain English and Chinese presentations, with simultaneous translation.
