Sustainability is becoming more important each year and continual improvement is becoming a market expectation.

As a product manufacturer or brand, differentiating your product(s) with a sustainability certification can lead to increased business activity, preferential treatment by customers, or increased brand trust with your consumers.  Requests for certifications are also often part of sustainability evaluation tools like the Higg Index, EcoVadis, SASB or LEED.  WAP Sustainability helps organizations navigate the sea of certifications and complicated standards to simply the sustainability certification process.
