Textiles & garments aiming to complete ‘greening’ by 2030

Vietnam’s textiles and garment sector is a traditional outsourcing industry using a lot of labor and natural resources, making its transition to green production a major challenge. The Vietnam Textile and Apparel Association has set a target of reducing energy consumption by 15 per cent and water consumption by 20 per cent by 2023 and completing the “greening” of the sector by 2030.
