Bangladesh’s ready-made garment (RMG) sector continues to strengthen its global leadership in sustainable manufacturing, as four additional factories have earned prestigious Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification.
With these new recognitions, the country now boasts a total of 284 LEED-certified RMG factories, including 121 with Platinum ratings and 144 with Gold ratings.
Impressively, Bangladesh is home to 52 of the world’s top 100 highest-rated LEED-certified factories—highlighting its significant progress in environmentally responsible industrial practices.
Industry leaders have welcomed the new certifications, noting that they reflect Bangladesh’s growing commitment to sustainability, energy efficiency, and environmentally responsible production.
The LEED certification, awarded by the U.S. Green Building Council, is widely regarded as a global benchmark for green building excellence.
