MAS Holdings has advanced its sustainability strategy with two of its manufacturing units obtaining bluesign System Partner status, increasing alignment across its wet processing operations to internationally recognised chemical management standards.
Texo (Pvt.) Ltd., a cotton fabric processing mill, and Noyon Lanka, a knitted lace manufacturer, have joined the bluesign system following independent assessments of their production processes, including knitting, dyeing, finishing, scouring, extrusion, and laminating. The certification brings 75% of MAS’s wet processing facilities under the framework, which focuses on environmental, health, and safety compliance.
The development forms part of the company’s Plan for Change 2030 roadmap, which prioritises responsible manufacturing practices and tighter control over chemical use. The bluesign system requires facilities to meet strict global benchmarks, supported by data-driven tools and supply chain monitoring designed to eliminate hazardous substances and reduce resource consumption.
As part of the transition, the two facilities will adopt the bluesign Input Stream Management System, restricting production to approved chemical inputs. They will also use digital platforms such as CUBE, FINDER, and GUIDE to track chemical usage, measure performance, and improve operational efficiency.
MAS Holdings General Manager – Environmental Sustainability, Dhanujie Jayapala said: “This milestone demonstrates MAS’ continued commitment to embedding verified, data-driven sustainability processes across our operations. Bluesign System Partnership is a certification that represents an ongoing journey of transparency, continuous improvement and accountability to our brand partners and the industry at large.”
The latest addition strengthens MAS’s supply chain integration within the global bluesign network, where manufacturers operate under standardised chemical management systems.
In addition, bluesign Chief Commercial Officer Barbara Oswald said: “We are delighted that two more MAS facilities have become bluesign System Partners. We warmly welcome Texo and Noyon to the bluesign family. We are very pleased that the goals of MAS and the bluesign vision are aligned, and that we can work together to reduce the environmental impact across the textile supply chain.”
