HanesBrands has been busy.

The apparel manufacturer is continuing to push toward growth and sustainability goals. Recently, two big moves were made in these areas. On the sustainability side, the company announced its first company-owned solar power project with a direct investment in company-owned solar energy equipment at its sewing facility in Surin, Thailand.

The Surin plant will operate on 50% renewable solar power, which started this month. According to a press release, the project includes more than 3,300 panels covering the roof of the main sewing facility and adjacent warehouse and was completed in two phases. It is estimated that the installation will save approximately $340,000 annually.

Kamalraj Ramadoss, the Surin plant manager, played a role in the move, saying that the HanesBrands 2030 Sustainability Goals and a renewable energy incentive offered by the Thai government to help facilitate this project both influenced the project. “Our associates are incredibly proud to work in a facility powered by clean energy,” said Kamalraj in the press release. “We are happy to pioneer these efforts to save resources for the planet and our company.”

On the domestic front, HanesBrands announced that it has leased a 1.2 million sq. ft. building near Rickenbacker, Ohio in the biggest industrial lease signed this year in central Ohio, as reported by The Columbus Dispatch. In that article, it was shared that the company leased the building from developer VanTrust Real Estate, which had built the warehouse on “spec,” meaning without a committed tenant.

HanesBrands reports that it does not plan to occupy the space until later this year. Jeff Pitts, vice president of global real estate for HanesBrands, said in a statement that the company was drawn to the Columbus area because of its central location. “The location allows us direct access to customers throughout the country, and we look forward to beginning operations later this year,” Pitts said.
