Crystal International
promotes energy
saving at 11
factories
Crystal International, a
Hong Kong based apparel
manufacturing giant, has led 11
subsidiary factories in Vietnam,
Cambodia, Bangladesh and Sri
Lanka to switch off unnecessary
lights and encourage the use of
energy-efficient lighting as well
as promote energy saving. More
than 44,000 staff members were
part of the move that marked the
World Wide Fund for Nature’s
(WWF) Earth Hour initiative,
one of the largest collective
environmental movements.
For nine consecutive years,
Crystal International has
supported the noble initiative
and further wants to influence
its staff towards adopting such
energy saving practices.“On
environmental protection, it is
necessary to let more people
join us to promote energy-saving
practices among their families
and friends, protecting our
nature and eventually achieving
massive environmental impact
for our planet,” the company
BUTTONS / BUCKLES
said. In addition to this, earlier
this year, Crystal International
was among the companies
to be associated with Global
Fashion Agenda’s new Associate
Partner’s circle encouraging
the organisation’s mission to
make the fashion industry
more sustainable. Crystal
International Group is among the
world’s leading manufacturers
dealing in lifestyle wear, denim,
intimates, sweaters, sportswear
and outdoor apparel. The Group
has around 20 production
facilities located in five countries
including Vietnam, China,
Cambodia, Bangladesh and Sri
Lanka. The Group serves leading
global brands through a highly
differentiated ‘co-creation’
business model that offers value-
added services and creative
innovation. Furthermore, it also
maintains a genuine focus on
