The RITE GROUP is a new industry association which aims to provide advice and fact based information to minimise the negative environmental impact of the production, use and disposal of textiles and apparel. The Group's ultimate goal is to drive forward the sustainable and ethical production of textiles and clothing throughout the global supply chain through a number of innovative initiatives. The founder members of the RITE GROUP are Marks & Spencer, University of Leeds, and Ecotextile News. A steering committee and advisory panel of senior industry executives from fibres through to brands is now being assembled.
