Sustainability certification

Bangladesh has one of the highest concentrations of LEED-certified garment factories in the world, across the Certified, Silver, Gold and Platinum levels, alongside widespread effluent treatment plant (ETP) installation. Certification level is shown on each factory profile where the factory has declared one.

LEED levels shown on factory profiles are self-declared by the factory and are not independently verified by Bangladesh Apparel.
