Interloop becomes Textile Exchange Member


                                                             We intend to join hands with more than 400 members of
                                                             Textile Exchange to help advance their mission of creating
                                                             leaders in  the sustainable  fibers and materials industry.
                                                             Their  new Climate+  Strategy  has  ambitious goals  for  a
                                                             45% reduction in CO2 emissions from textile fiber and
                                                             material production by 2030.

                                                             We can only bring such change if we work in collaboration
                                                             and utilise the right tools to make these improvements.
                                                             This is in alignment with the representation of Textile

                                                             The Textile Exchange is also tackling the current production

                                                             and psychology, and the fact that research on resilience involves
                                                             interest in problems such as safety, danger, stress, adversity,
                                                             recovery, disturbance and disaster.
                                                             The concept of resilience corresponds well to ideas such as the
                                                             need for proactivity, anticipation and the need to reformulate
                                                             the traditional approach to safety because it allows, at some
                                                             point, a limited increment of safety.

                                                             Interloop has invested in resilient occupational safety and

              National Safety Day is observed each year to create and spread
              awareness around the world about acquiring safety measures
              that are necessary for the well-being and a healthy lifestyle.

              As healthcare is Interloop’s constant area of focus, on Apr 28,
              2021, World Occupational Safety & Health day was held at
              Plant 4 with International labor organization initiative: “Invest
              in Resilient OSH System”.

              The COVID-19 pandemic has led governments, employers,
              workers and the general population to face unprecedented
              challenges in relation to the virus, and it has many worse effects
              on the international, national and organisational economies.
