In today’s fashion industry, sustainability isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a responsibility. While many companies focus on reducing direct emissions (Scope 1) and those from purchased energy (Scope 2), the real challenge lies in tackling Scope 3 emissions—the indirect emissions that occur throughout the supply chain. These emissions can account for up to 90% of a fashion brand’s total carbon footprint, covering everything from raw material extraction and manufacturing to transportation, usage, and disposal. Addressing them isn’t just important—it’s imperative.
We at TGW aren’t just participating in the sustainability movement—we’re leading it. Specializing in expertly crafted uniforms for industries with uniformed workforces, TGW takes a holistic approach to sustainability. Their uniforms are made from organic materials, produced using eco-friendly methods, and designed to reduce carbon impact at every stage of the supply chain. But what truly sets TGW apart is its unwavering commitment to tackling the Scope 3 emissions challenge head-on.
Values
For businesses looking to shrink their environmental footprint, partnering with TGW is a game-changer. By choosing TGW’s sustainably produced uniforms, companies automatically reduce their Scope 3 emissions related to garment procurement. This is crucial because, according to industry research, the majority of emissions in the apparel sector come from purchased goods and services. By shifting to TGW’s sustainable solutions, businesses can ensure that their operations are aligned with global environmental goals, such as carbon neutrality and circular economy principles.

It’s no secret—managing Scope 3 emissions is incredibly complex. Unlike direct emissions, these emissions are often outside a company’s immediate control, requiring a rigorous and detail-oriented approach to supply chain sustainability. Many businesses struggle with this, but TGW embraces the challenge with an obsessive dedication to environmental responsibility. From selecting ethical suppliers to implementing low-impact manufacturing processes, TGW ensures that every step aligns with a carbon-conscious philosophy.
