09/01/2019
Outdoor brand Mammut has announced it has joined the Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC) and will implement the organisation’s Higg Index to measure its corporate responsibility performance. 

"In Mammut's view, the strengths of the Higg Index are its unification of the industry and the comparability it allows", said Adrian Huber, Mammut’s head of corporate responsibility. “All SAC members have committed to work together to ensure more responsible production in global supply chains. A collaborative approach is essential to support concerted efforts to continuously improve sustainability performance."

For his part, Jason Kibbey, CEO of SAC, said: “Mammut’s entry to the coalition will enable us to increase our influence in the sector and accelerate the change we are striving to bring about in relation to responsible behaviour."
