D – The topic of sustainability seemed to have lost a touch of importance in the public eye recently. However, the past summer once again painfully demonstrated that climate change is advancing rapidly.
In the merch industry, many companies take sustainability very seriously, as the sustainability special in the new issue of eppi magazine demonstrates. An extensive product showcase provides dozens of examples of material innovations, clever designs, recycling initiatives, more transparent supply chains and entrepreneurial spirit aimed at benefiting future generations. Additionally, Christian Lanvermann (Fruit of the Loom) and Christine Spiegel (IAM) discuss the new CiCLO technology, which enables synthetic fibres to biodegrade. The issue also features in-depth articles on B Corp, the Global Recycled Standard, and EcoVadis.
