Partnership for Cleaner Textile - Phase 2 Second phase of the Partnership for Cleaner Textile (2013-2017). The project intends to widen its reach and deepen its engagement with the entire textile value chain. PaCT works as a platform that facilitates cooperation between factories, brands, sector organizations, technology providers and local banks. Its objectives are to avoid water use, reduce wastewater, avoid energy use, reduce GHG emissions, avoid chemical usage, and facilitate the financing of ‘green’ investments. It consists of three components: 1) firm level advisory, 2) group of firm level advisory through the Textile Technology Business center (TTBC - established through PaCT), 3) enhance sector competitiveness through the Textile Sustainability Platform (TSP – established through PaCT) and market/feasibility studies. As the second phase of the project is intended to be the last phase, much emphasis will be placed on the sustainability of the platforms TTBC and TSP beyond the project period.
