From 15-24 June, professionals from 10 Egyptian textile, carpet and garment producers took part in the final webinar series.

This training brought relevant skills to the participating companies, not only in upgrading internal skills on chemical management but also in responding to many brands and customers signatory of the ZDHC, committing to phasing out hazardous chemicals from their supply chains.

Employees who completed the training and took the final online exam were awarded a final ZDHC certificate that the company can use to demonstrate their capabilities toward their customers.
