Esprit Holdings Limited is a publicly owned manufacturer of clothing, footwear, accessories, jewellery and housewares under the label Esprit which is planning to increase sustainable viscose production as outlined by Changing Markets Foundation roadmap. This initiative is taken to minimise the effects of harmful chemicals in the manufacturing processes by adopting a closed loop system, Espirit said in the Press release.

Following the roadmap outlined by the Changing Markets Foundation, Esprit will work with suppliers and viscose manufacturers to move to a closed loop production system by 2023-25. With this aim, Esprit commits to improve the manufacturing process of viscose and modal fibres.

The brand will clearly communicate procurement requirements and evaluate the environmental impact of the production process and social impacts of suppliers along the whole supply chain. Esprit and the Changing Markets Foundation share the idea of a responsible and clean textile industry. By conveying the ecological requirements for viscose production to its producers, Esprit promotes a sustainable change in the production of fibres.
