The licensed bedding specialist, Dreamtex has joined the Lancashire Chamber of Commerce Green Rose programme to help develop a new Sustainable Management System that will propel it towards its scope 1 and 2 reduction goals.
The six-session programme spanning six months includes peer-to-peer learning and networking as well as guidance and advice for ISO certifications. By developing an effective System, Dreamtex will be able to create a clear path towards its scope 3 targets.
“Our sustainability strategy is constantly being evaluated and developed,” said Anthony Duckworth, Dreamtex md. “Our BCI membership has allowed us to drastically grow our BCI cotton sourced ranges with our BBC and Xbox collections, while our work with the Green Rose Programme allows for an agile management of our sustainable strategy.”
Dreamtex is also partnering with WRAP and OPRL (On Pack Recycling Label) to empower customers with knowledge of how and when to recycle the company’s packaging at home.
In addition, the team are members of SEDEX, an organisation which conducts annual social audits of the facilities associated with Dreamtex’s products, focusing on areas such as health and safety, the environment, child labour, discrimination, and working hours and wages.
This all comes as the world prepares to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights through the United Nations’ Human Rights 75 initiative taking place this December.
