Client Objectives
One of the world’s leading denim producers ISKO was looking to develop its first sustainability report. As well as outlining the company’s ambitious targets, the company wanted to demonstrate its commitment to the UN’s Sustainble Development Goals (SDGs), International Labour Standards (ILO) and industry partners.
ISKO is part of SANKO TEKSTIL, the textile division of the SANKO Group. As the premium denim ingredient brand behind people’s most favorite jeans, ISKO has a strong global presence.
Through ISKO’s Responsible Innovation™ approach, which is founded on creativity, competence and citizenship, the company wanted to showcase its work to manage its environmental and social impact within this report. This has led to many achievements, including bluesign® Partnership, STeP by OEKO-TEX®, Textile Exchange, SAC, ZDHC, and EU Ecolabel, detailed in the report.
