Structure of the Green Gear Alliance
The Green Gear Alliance (GGA) is a non-profit foundation that is committed to the circular processing of personal protective equipment (PPE), work clothing and work shoes. Together with manufacturers, sponsors and others, we are working on an efficient system for return logistics and innovative recycling solutions.
Board of the GGA
The foundation is led by a board of five seats, currently filled by manufacturers of workwear and work shoes. The board determines the strategic direction of the GGA and ensures that the foundation’s objectives are achieved.
Work groups for producers and sponsors
To accelerate the circular transition, we work together in specialized working groups. These working groups are accessible to producers and sponsors and focus on the following themes:
- Communication – increasing the awareness and impact of the GGA
- Resources – optimization of return flows and high-quality recycling
- Launch – implementation and scaling up the return logistics
This work group will end in the coming months - Innovation projects & grant acquisition – exploring new technologies and financing opportunities
- Operational – practical implementation and logistical processes
- Member recruitment – network expansion and involvement of new parties
Do you want to contribute to any of these work groups?
Advisory Board
The Advisory Board exists to advise the Foundation’s Board, both unsolicited and requested, on the progress of the Foundation and the route to circular work clothing, work shoes and other PPE. The Advisory Board is a reflection of the chain of personal protective equipment (view the Advisory Board profile here). Members of the Advisory Board are individuals and do not always have to be affiliated as a Producer or Sponsor. Stakeholders share their ideas, contribute expertise and contribute to the further development of the GGA. The Advisory Board is currently being set up. The GGA aims to complete the Advisory Board and to set up the first meeting by mid-May.
