We are thrilled to announce that Texintel has been invited to join the prestigious United Nations Fashion and Lifestyle Network.

We had the honor of attending the annual meeting held at the United Nations Headquarters in New York. “This partnership solidifies our unwavering commitment to sustainability and the vital importance of digital technologies across the textile manufacturing value chain,” said Debbie McKeegan of Texintel.

The third edition of the UN Fashion and Lifestyle Network annual meeting, jointly organized by the United Nations Office for Partnerships and the Fashion Impact Fund, stands as a crucial milestone in advancing collaborations within the fashion and lifestyle sectors. Bringing together advisory committee members, registered partnerships, industry stakeholders, leaders, media, and UN representatives, the meeting serves as a pivotal platform for showcasing impactful actions and progress. The overarching objective is to increase sector engagement in the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), recognizing the profound influence of these sectors on societies and the environment.

This year’s gathering focused on key sectors such as fashion, home, textiles, jewelry, luxury, and travel, which will help strengthen the promises of the SDGs, striving for global transparency, inclusivity, and sustainable transformation. Watch the meeting here.

Our alliance with the UNFLN network stands as a testament to our dedication and labors in support of our Texintel partners and community. Strategic collaboration within the vendor chain is the only way to truly develop a seamless, circular manufacturing infrastructure for the supply of sustainable, environmentally certified production.

An environmentally responsible supply chain that serves the vast textile marketplace must be secured—only then can we be assured that we maintain a viable industry. Collectively, we must face the textile industry’s responsibility towards climate change and work throughout the length and breadth and each and every detail within the supply chain to reverse our negative impact.

The inevitable transition to digital technologies within the textile industry will not only democratize our supply chain and manufacturing processes, but most importantly, contribute significantly toward a sustainable future for our planet.

“Our membership emboldens the Texintel team to go deeper and further our achievements by implementing and promoting digital solutions within the textile industry…We believe in harnessing the power of technology to create a textile industry that serves the planet as much as it serves us,” said McKeegan. “Our mission is to champion a greener, more sustainable future for the fashion, interior décor, and global textile industry and its digitalization.”

Join us, as together we pave the way for an environmentally responsible and digitally innovative future in textiles.
