DEPUTY GENERAL MANAGER OF SALES AND MARKETING AND GENERAL COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN, CALIK DENIM

It is vital to adopt a holistic approach in order to eliminate the negative e"ects on the environment! This is an approach that can only be implemented through collaboration. Being “sustainable” is not a concept that you can achieve with your own production or by yourself. It is important that you act consciously – from the raw materials you use in production, to the chemicals, to the energy you consume from renewable sources, to zero waste – and it should proceed with the same logic with subsequent processes. Similarly, if you can create a circular economy throughout your business, you will have built a powerhouse that eliminates the negative impacts of the denim industry.
