WRAP stands for Worldwide Responsible Accredited Production, WRAP audit is performed against the WRAP guidelines, WRAP is having its code of conduct developed on 12 principles which assure safe, legal, and ethical & secure manufacturing process. WRAP is the world’s largest factory-based certification program for manufacturers of clothing, footwear, other sewn products as well as for their raw material manufacturers. WRAP principles mostly focused on social compliances and C-TAPT requirements.
If any supplier certified on WRAP, that certificate and audit report can be shared with multiple customers rather than having different audit conducted for each customer. WRAP ultimate objective to improve working conditions in the factories.
WRAP – World Wide Responsible Accredited Production is based in USA, formerly it was known World Wide Apparel Production and it certifies the factories according to the WRAP principles. It was established in 2000 by the American Apparel and Footwear Association
WRAP is the voluntary standard and is suitable for any organization i.e. large, medium and small manufactures considering improving its ethical practices and sustainability to meet the expectations of all stakeholders.
It is the pre-request to start business relationship with US based customers. Mostly International customers waive their own social audit of factory on behalf of WRAP certificate and they evaluate the audit results according to their criteria and give the rating to the factory such as Wal Mart the giant retailer of the world also accepts WRAP certificate along with the audit report and evaluate against their own social audit criteria and give the rating to the supplier.
WRAP doesn’t conduct audit itself and only approved monitoring companies can conduct the WRAP audit as well as those companies must have the full member of APSCA. Mostly retailers, importers and customers don’t accept the wrap’s audit report if monitoring firm and their auditor do not have the membership number of APSCA.
By implementing this standards organization can improve its overall social compliance performance to assure the confidence & satisfaction as well as meet the expectation of its customers
