Partnership for Cleaner Textile (PaCT)
PaCT is playing a leading role in driving the long-term competitiveness and environmental sustainability of the textile wet processing sector, by addressing high water, energy, and chemical use through the adoption of best practices in the textile sector. These best practices lead to declining resource consumption, soaring profits, and an enhanced image in the global apparel market.
Led by the International Finance Corporation (IFC), PaCT is working in partnership with NGO Solidaridad, the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, 13 global apparel brands and 2 technology suppliers, textile factories, and the Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA). To date, PaCT has partnered with 215 textile factories to support them to implement sustainable, resource efficiency projects. These projects have not only led to huge savings in resources, but are also realizing cumulative cost savings of USD 12.4 million/year for these factories.
