SGS, the global leader in testing, inspection, and certification, will host an exclusive webinar on February 26, 2025, focusing on climate change management, corporate sustainability, and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) frameworks for the fashion industry. As the 2030 review of the Paris Agreement draws closer, businesses are intensifying their efforts to cut greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, embrace circular economy principles, and implement sustainable practices.
This one-hour session, offered in two parts, will provide attendees with the latest strategies for carbon reduction, key regulatory updates, and actionable advice on building a strong ESG framework. It will also dive into life cycle assessment (LCA) and product environmental footprint (PEF) methodologies, essential for evaluating and reducing environmental impact.
The webinar will be led by SGS experts Jialun Zhang, Global Technical Support Section Head, Softline, and Dr. Min Zhu, Senior Director, Technical Services and Operations, Softlines. Both have significant expertise in sustainability, chemical management, global compliance, and corporate decarbonization. Targeted at professionals in the fashion industry, including sustainability managers, buyers, and business owners, the webinar will offer practical strategies to reduce environmental impact while boosting brand reputation and supporting growth in international markets.
