Exploring Information Flow – how data is passed and reported in chemical management

The session is to bring up a discussion on chemical data management along the fashion supply chain to reveal the information gaps which is not just information not being passed on but also about who owns what data and how to build a common ground to share those data.

The invited panelists will walk through the different scenarios of chemical data reporting to provide a clearer picture of chemical suppliers’ dilemmas and garment suppliers’ specific challenges. The shared insights are not only reflecting the regional garment suppliers’ common experiences but also provide more clues on how to improve the transparency and traceability of chemical management.
