GoBlu, BluWin partner to drive uptake of sustainable chemicals in fashion
Hong Kong-based sustainability accelerator GoBlu and UK-based climate solution provider BluWin have announced a strategic partnership aimed at encouraging the use of more sustainable chemical products in the fashion and textile industry. The partnership also aims to improve the overall transparency and availability of data with regard to chemicals used.
GoBlu and BluWin are joining forces to support industry stakeholders in fulfilling the rising market demand for sustainable products and transparent information. The companies say it will mean them bundling some of their services for customers who will benefit from the pooled resources of BluWin’s expertise in chemical management and GoBlu’s digital tools such as its BHive chemical management smartphone app.
The BHive app, developed by GoBlu, enables manufacturers to collect information on all chemical products used on-site, via smartphone, and determine which products meet the sustainability requirements of different brands and retailers.
