Worldwide Responsible Apparel Production (WRAP)

Global Standards - Toan Tin is an accredited Independent Monitor for WRAP (Worldwide Responsible Apparel Production) in Vietnam. 

We are the first local monitors accredited for WRAP in Vietnam , offering unsurpassed local knowledge and expertise.

WRAP is a factory-based Certification Program for manufacturers of sewn products, including apparel, footwear and accessories.  

Certification of factories is based on WRAP principles and legal compliance and follows a three step process under which the factory completes a self-assessment to test their compliance readiness.  Only when the factory feels they are ready for certification do they undergo Independent Monitoring for certification. 

Supported by the members of the American Apparel and Footwear Association (AAFA), WRAP is accepted by more than 700 companies who together account for more than 80% of the US wholesale apparel market.  This includes many of the largest producers of apparel in the US , such as Sara Lee, Jockey, VF Corp., and Russell. 

These member companies have joined together to develop the WRAP principles and certification system in order to create consistent standards for responsible business in the apparel industry and reduce the burden of duplicate auditing and monitoring efforts.

The WRAP principles are available from the WRAP web site at www.wrapapparel.org.
