Italian eyewear company Safilo has recently announced its membership in The Fashion Pact, a global coalition that brings together companies in the fashion and textile industry. This coalition comprises businesses involved in various sectors, including ready-to-wear, sportswear, lifestyle, luxury, as well as suppliers, distributors, and brand owners. The united goal of all members is to achieve significant environmental milestones in three key areas: preventing global warming, restoring biodiversity, and protecting the oceans.
Safilo’s decision to join The Fashion Pact is fully aligned with its purpose-led strategy, which centers on three pillars: planet, product, and people. With this move, the company aims to undertake projects and initiatives that effectively address the urgent challenges of climate change, biodiversity loss, and ocean protection.
Angelo Trocchia, Safilo’s CEO, places great emphasis on the importance of sustainable business practices. In expressing pride at joining The Fashion Pact, he highlights how collaboration with other companies will enable them to generate a positive impact on society.
Interestingly, Safilo’s announcement coincides with the launch of a climate action initiative for fashion brands, initiated by Yoox Net-A-Porter, Zalando, and About You. This joint effort is ultimately aimed at combating climate change and further showcases the increasing number of fashion industry players that are committed to making a tangible difference.
As consumers become more conscious of environmental issues and express growing concerns about the fashion sector’s impact on the planet, they are increasingly demanding action from the companies they support. It is initiatives like The Fashion Pact and industry collaborations that highlight the industry’s response to these growing consumer demands and its unwavering dedication to sustainability.
