In a bid to implement a “robust” chemical management scheme and strengthen its sustainability performance, Indian denim specialist Anubha Industries Ltd has announced a strategic partnership with textile chemicals management system Bluesign Technologies.
The move, announced at last week’s Kingpins New York event, sees Anubha become the first denim textile manufacturer system partner in India and grants the company access to Bluesign’s Bluefinder for chemical management throughout its supply chain.

“We are proud to become a Bluesign system partner,” says managing director Aditya Goyal. “With laser focused approach on increasing transparency and environmental management performance we are determined to further improve the sustainability of our entire supply chain. We consistently commit to the goal of becoming the most sustainable denim company in India.”
The Bluesign system, a solution for sustainable textile production adopted by more than 500 leading companies worldwide, eliminates harmful substances right from the beginning of the manufacturing process and sets and controls standards for environmentally friendly and safe textile production. This ensures the final products meet very stringent consumer safety requirements and also serves as a reliable indicator of sustainability for consumers.
With the Bluefinder, suppliers can access a database of chemicals that have received Bluesign approval following a thorough analysis of hazards and risks, enabling them to effectively manage the chemicals they use and ensure sustainability.
