Awards recognize sustainability leaders who are partnering with Unifi in protecting our natural resources

GREENSBORO, N.C. - Jan. 25, 2017 – To further commemorate its recent milestone of recycling 10 billion bottles, Unifi, Inc. (NYSE: UFI) is pleased to announce the recipients of the inaugural REPREVE® Champions of Sustainability awards. These annual awards celebrate Unifi’s brand and textile partners that share in its commitment to sustainability and vision for a better tomorrow.

Exchange from the TV show LAW & ORDER, by Detective Lennie Briscoe:
Lab technician (trying to establish the age of a skeleton): "Once we get the chemical analysis, we can narrow it down."
Lennie: "Great. When you get an answer, give me a call at the retirement home."

It made me think of the micro-factory we profiled for AAPN member Next Wave last week. Anyone can analyze then buy one, but how long does it take to learn the operations of apparel production needed to maximize the investment?
