Introduction to certification

WRAP certification is an important certification in the field of global apparel production, which aims to promote corporate social responsibility and improve the human rights situation of apparel manufacturers around the world. Launched by the Global Apparel Production Social Responsibility Organization, WRAP certification has become the leading social responsibility certification organization in the apparel industry, recognized by more than 100 international brands.

Through WRAP certification, enterprises can obtain WRAP certificates, which is not only a necessary qualification for exporting to overseas markets, but also a reflection of credibility and quality. WRAP's audits cover both social responsibility and anti-terrorism systems, and the standards are very strict. The number of WRAP-certified factories worldwide is approximately 2,200, including about 800 in China.

For Chinese apparel companies looking to expand overseas markets, passing WRAP certification can not only improve their credibility and market competitiveness, but also better meet the social responsibility requirements of international buyers. Therefore, obtaining a WRAP certificate is of great significance for Chinese apparel companies.
