Anvil Knitwear Joins Business Coalition

February 14, 2011

Anvil Knitwear Inc., New York, recently announced that it has joined the Business for Innovative Climate & Energy Policy (BICEP) coalition.

Anvil is the 20th member of BICEP, a group of American companies committed to working with businesses and policymakers to enact meaningful energy and climate policies.

For Anvil, joining BICEP is an important next step toward ensuring sustainable global growth. BICEP’s core principles call for reducing greenhouse gases, promoting energy efficiency, and supporting creation of a globally competitive clean energy economy.

Anvil has taken steps to measure, reduce and report on its own environmental footprint. Its AnvilOrganic and AnvilSustainable brands are among the company’s 17 eco-friendly styles made from a variety of fibers such as certified organic cotton, transitional cotton, recycled cotton, and recycled PET bottles and blends, according to the company.

BICEP is coordinated by Ceres, a national network of investors, environmental organizations and other public interest groups working to address sustainability challenges, such as global climate change. While Anvil is the newest BICEP member, it joined Ceres and adopted its principles in 2007.
