Green Gear Alliance
Collaborating with your competitor – what’s in it for you?
Join the Collective of Workwear Reverse Logistics – A Case
📍 10 September | 15:25 – 15:45
What can you expect?
The Green Gear Alliance is a foundation within the workwear sector dedicated to setting up reverse logistics and enabling circularity for professional clothing and PPE. Instead of competing, companies collaborate to build scale, reduce costs, and prepare for future regulation.
In this session, the Alliance will show how the model works in practice: collecting volume together across the Benelux, involving producers and end users, and preparing for expansion into the EU. By joining forces, participants not only benefit from shared logistics and compliance advantages but also strengthen customer trust in circular workwear solutions.
What will you learn?
- How collective reverse logistics for workwear is organised in practice
- Why joining forces with competitors creates cost savings and compliance advantages
- The added value for producers, dealers, and end users
- How this model can grow from the Benelux towards the EU
Who should attend?
Workwear companies in the Benelux (direct participation possible today), European workwear companies preparing to join in the near future, as well as higher management, sustainability managers, and sales managers exploring collaborative circular models.
