the framework


4sustainability® is a multi-dimensional framework designed to assess environmental and social risks and impacts, and to drive continuous sustainability performance improvement across fashion supply chains.
The system is developed and regularly updated to align with the requirements and guidance of the most recognized European and global industry standards and initiatives. It streamlines risk assessment and sustainability performance measurement for companies, while enabling annual third-party verification and validation of data and progress providing both credibility and a transparent communication tool for the market.

a dream that became a journey


“The fashion industry, like many others, needs to transform by integrating ethics into business, and environmental and people protection into profit. 4sustainability is a model for data collection, verification and action that harmonises sector priorities. Launched in 2014, it is an initiative developed through collaboration with key industry stakeholders committed to responsible fashion, supported by a team of experts and digital platforms I am proud of. I hope that the digitalisation of the model and the example set by many companies that have already adopted it will lead to its use by an ever-growing number of businesses. Reducing the environmental and social impact of production means doing it at scale, systemically, and not on isolated parts of the supply chain.”  Francesca Rulli
