Sri Lanka Apparel will be showcasing “Garments without Guilt” at the Fatex Fair to be held early next month in Paris. Sri Lanka Apparel – Garments without Guilt, the ethos of the Sri Lankan apparel industry, epitomizes the synergy between ethical brands and apparel made in Sri Lanka.
“Children have no business in our business” is just one of the principles governing this industry ethos. The Garments without Guilt initiative focuses on ethical manufacture and sustainable development assuring the industry's commitment to ethical working conditions, free of child labour, free of forced labour, free of discrimination and free of sweatshop practices.
The Sri Lanka Apparel delegation headed by its Chairman Ajith Dias will be accompanied by prominent garment manufacturers who will also be participating at the Fatex in Paris. The garment manufacturers include MAS Holdings, Penguin Group, Union Apparels, Garment Services, Jubilee Apparels, Denshun Industries and Alexandra Industries.
The product capabilities on display will range from intimate apparel, sportswear, leisurewear, children's wear, formal wear and garments with varying washed effects to hand flat knits and computerized auto fashioned knits as well as embellishments including hand worked sequin beads and embroideries.
Sri Lanka's Apparel Industry, dynamic and forward moving with over 30 years experience, has been at the forefront of industrial excellence and social responsibility in Asia, conforming and complying with the norms of ethical sourcing backed by strong legislation. And over the past decade as the global interest focused on how, where and by whom products were made, Sri Lanka Apparel was already ahead of the curve putting their own inherent ethical thinking into practice.
