World Responsible Apparel Production (WRAP)
The objective of the WRAP Certification Program is to promote and certify lawful, humane and ethical manufacturing throughout the world. Participation in the WRAP Certification Program demonstrates the sewn products industry’s commitment to socially responsible business practices by adhering to the WRAP Production Principles.
The Program seeks to accomplish these objectives by certifying that production facilities engaged in manufacturing comply with the Worldwide Responsible Apparel Production Principles ¾ core standards that address labor practices, factory conditions, and environmental and customs compliance. The Program is a factory-based certification program. Facilities that participate in the Program voluntarily agree that an independent monitor will evaluate the facility for compliance with the Principles.
A WRAP Certification Board, comprised of a renowned independent Board of Directors and Executive Staff, is responsible for the ongoing administration of the Program. The WRAP reviews facility compliance reports approves independent monitors and certifies facilities as complying with the Principles.
