Fruit of the Loom Inc. has received the Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) Climate Leadership Award. The award recognises organisations that publicly report and verify corporate GHG inventories and set aggressive goals to reduce those emissions.
Fruit¹s commitment to reducing electricity-related GHG emissions by 40 per cent by 2015, set against an SCS Global Services (SCS)-verified baseline, earned it the honour.
³Fruit of the Loom seeks the highest standards, not only in our business but in our commitment to a sustainable future,² says Rick Medlin, President and CEO, Fruit of the Loom, Inc.
Fruit of the Loom¹s actions to support this goal are largely focused on reducing its carbon footprint from its Honduran operations.
The Honduran facilities will offset 100 per cent of electricity consumption with renewable sources, following an investment in onsite-biomass electricity generation and the purchase of electricity from a new hydroelectric power generation facility in the region. The company is initiating similar changes in operations across the world.
