Sappi has joined ZDHC Foundation’s Roadmap to Zero Programme to support chemical management in its dissolving wood pulp operations.
Sappi Verve links raw material supply for apparel and home textiles with sustainability expectations beyond its own operations.
Fibre producers, manufacturers, brands, customers and suppliers will collaborate on chemicals, water stewardship and transparency.
As a supplier of a raw material, Sappi recognises that driving more sustainable outcomes requires collaboration beyond its own operations. By joining ZDHC, the company strengthens its ability to work alongside fibre producers, manufacturers, brands and other Verve value chain partners to address shared challenges related to chemical management, water stewardship and greater supply chain transparency.
According to Krelyne Andrew, Head of Sustainability Sappi Verve: “Our collaboration with ZDHC strengthens our ability to support our customers and suppliers in meeting evolving industry expectations.”
Responsible textile manufacturing doesn’t just start at the garment factory. For Sappi Verve, it’s about bridging the gap between raw material and downstream manufacturing, reflecting the belief that meaningful environmental progress is a shared responsibility, requiring partnerships at every stage of the fabric’s journey.
