Version 2.0 of the standard, its latest, emphasizes animal welfare in cashmere production. In addition, AbTF is underlining its commitment to transparency and traceability in the production chain by working with TextileGenesis, A Lectra Company, which provides a platform for tracing textiles.
“We are certain that the Aid by Trade Foundation’s revision of The Good Cashmere Standard will serve to prioritise the welfare of the goats further,” states Tina Stridde, the managing director of the Aid by Trade Foundation, adding, “To accelerate progress towards achieving transparency and traceability from raw cashmere to the final product, we are also working with TextileGenesis, an established, technologically innovative platform.”
The Good Cashmere Standard 2.0
Following its revision by the Aid by Trade Foundation, GCS Version 2.0 is built on four pillars encompassing the key aspects of sustainable cashmere production: cashmere goat welfare, the environment, people, and management. With these pillars and the accompanying criteria, GCS is effectively and comprehensively moving cashmere pro duc tion towards greater sustainability, both at the farms and in the first stage of processing cashmere f ibers, which occurs at buying and dehairing stations.
