Inside Guide to Cotton & Sustainability
Price: £99
Publication date: September 2020.
Written by Simon Ferrigno and edited by John Mowbray, the Inside Guide to Cotton and Sustainability 2020 is a 160 page printed publication that's an indispensible tool for retailers and brands who source cotton textiles and clothing. It is already THE reference tool for many leading global organisations.
This authoritative guidebook is an update of our original much sought-after guidebook, which was first published back in 2012, and which sold out within six months (sample pages from blue button to the right).
The new guidebook will go one step further in terms of an objective analysis of the rise in claims on sustainability with a factual, independent and an inside look at how the industry is actually performing.
