#  About Global Standards

Driving positive impact across textile value chains

Global Standards is an independent non-profit organisation dedicated to advancing responsible textile production through credible, voluntary sustainability standards.

With a team of around 50 dedicated professionals working across the globe, we develop practical tools that help the textile industry improve environmental performance, strengthen human rights, increase supply chain transparency and build trust through independent, third-party certification.

Our standards and related initiatives support businesses in creating lasting positive impact throughout textile value chains: from fibre to finished product.
