Texintel’S Statement on joining the prestigious United Nations Fashion and Lifestyle Network

We had the honour of attending the annual meeting held at the United Nations Headquarters in New York. “This partnership solidifies our unwavering commitment to sustainability and the vital importance of digital technologies across the textile manufacturing value chain” Debbie McKeegan – Texintel

The third edition of the UN Fashion and Lifestyle Network annual meeting, jointly organized by the United Nations Office for Partnerships and the Fashion Impact Fund, stands as a crucial milestone in advancing collaborations within the fashion and lifestyle sectors. Bringing together advisory committee members, registered partnerships, industry stakeholders, leaders, media, and UN representatives, the meeting serves as a pivotal platform for showcasing impactful actions and progress. The overarching objective is to increase sector engagement in the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), recognising the profound influence of these sectors on societies and the environment.

This year’s gathering focused on key sectors such as fashion, home, textiles, jewelry, luxury, and travel which will help strengthen the promises of the SDGs, striving for global transparency, inclusivity, and sustainable transformation.

Our alliance with the UNFLN network stands as a testament to our dedication and labours in support of our Texintel partners and community. Strategic collaboration within the vendor chain is the only way to truly develop a seamless, circular manufacturing infrastructure for the supply of sustainable, environmentally certified production.
With an environmental supply chain that serves the vast textile marketplace secured – only then can we be assured that we maintain a viable industry.

The inevitable transition to digital technologies within the Textile industry will not only democratise our supply chain and manufacturing processes, but most importantly contribute significantly toward a sustainable future for our planet.
