ATTI Launch Event at The Forum at the Conduit Club, London

Introducing ATTI: A New Era of Manufacturer-Led Transformation

 

The Apparel and Textile Transformation Initiative is an innovative, manufacturer-led, nationally oriented, and globally coordinated programme designed to accelerate transformation across the apparel and textile industry. Developed in response to the priorities of IAF and ITMF members, ATTI focuses on driving modernisation, operational efficiency, and low-impact practices. It aims to advance environmental improvements across the supply chain, with a focus on energy use, water consumption, emissions, and other key sustainability impacts.

 

Join us for this landmark launch event to hear directly from federations, associations, and other ATTI stakeholders about how this distinctive, manufacturer-centered approach is set to deliver progress toward industry sustainability targets. Participants will share perspectives on overcoming common barriers, aligning fragmented efforts, and scaling context-specific solutions. The discussion will also highlight actionable opportunities for industry actors to contribute to and benefit from this transformation.
