BGMEA is one of the lead partners in the Partnership for Cleaner Textile (PaCT) project.
The new office of the Textile Technology Business Center (TTBC) opened on 20th November 2022 at BGMEA Complex in Uttara, Dhaka.
Her Excellency Ms. Winne Estrup Petersen, Ambassador of Denmark to Bangladesh; His Excellency Mr. Anne Van Leeuwen, Ambassador of the Netherlands to Bangladesh; Mr. Martin Holtmann, Country Manager, IFC; and other representatives from Embassy of Denmark and the Netherlands were present during the opening ceremony.
The Dutch Government, particularly the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands to Bangladesh came forward to support the project which eventually proved its success through all the impacts that it demonstrated in the past decade.
One of the key deliverables of the PaCT project is to establish a knowledge center named ‘Textile Technology Business Center (TTBC)’ which will serve as the one-stop knowledge hub for the textile and clothing sector.
The TTBC will promote resource-efficient technologies such as a low liquor ratio dyeing process, new generation dyes, and chemicals, advanced ETP technologies, cogeneration, etc.
