New WRAP mandate expands factory certification beyond apparel

“We've found that the management systems and code areas for the apparel sector are directly applicable to virtually any other product – whether it is furniture, housewares, glass, plastic, electrical appliances, packaging or automotive parts.”

The expanded program will include industry-specific training, monitoring and certification programs designed around the UCEC. With this strategic expansion, the WRAP acronym, which has come to stand for social compliance in apparel, will now stand for social compliance in any labor intensive production process.

While WRAP will begin to certify factories in other industries under the UCEC insignia, it will continue the certification process for apparel, footwear and textile factories under the WRAP Apparel logo.
