Waterless Textile Dyeing & Finishing | SUPRAUNO® , Innovation driven, dedicated to the state-of-the-art Supercritical Fluid (SCF) Technology
Would like to highlight that for true sustainability in textile products, apart from water and energy reduction, there is need for reduction in use of hazardous, toxic chemicals in textile processing to reduce overall chemical pollution of water resources and land, as major pollution happens during manufacture of these chemicals, during their transport, handling and disposal at the textile processing plant. Thus in-depth audit of all three consumptions namely Water, Energy AND Chemicals is critical for Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) reporting. The reduction in toxic chemicals would also substantially reduce the overall cost of processing as well as substantially reduce energy requirements for Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD), to make genuinely sustainable products affordable.
🌍👗 The textile and apparel industry stands at a pivotal crossroads in its journey toward sustainability. The textile industry currently emits 10% of the world's emissions, and if left unchecked, these emissions could soar to 25%. Recent years have witnessed a surge in companies setting science-based targets (SBTs) to curb emissions. Yet, to truly meet these ambitious goals, action-driven strategies are non-negotiable. The urgency to bridge this gap is paramount. Here are six interventions, as identified by World Resources Institute, to reduce GHG emissions in the textile and fashion industry: 1️⃣ Maximising material efficiency involves employing smart design and manufacturing methods to maximise raw material usage and reduce process waste. 🧩👩🏭 2️⃣ Scaling sustainable materials and practices, such as utilising recycled polyester and adopting conservation tillage for cotton. ♻️🌱 3️⃣ Accelerating innovative materials, from recycling initiatives to bio-based and plant-based leather. 🚀🌿 4️⃣ Proliferating energy efficiency across manufacturing facilities. 💡⚙️ 5️⃣ Eliminating coal as an energy source, considering that 70% of the energy used in textiles comes from thermal energy. 🚫🏭 6️⃣ Shifting entirely to renewable energy sources. ☀️🌍 Follow us for insights on reducing your GHG emissions and transforming your sustainability data into commercial success.

To enable a circular textile value chain, automated sorting and processing of post-consumer textiles is a key challenge. We present the current state of the art and highlight the need for further development and collaboration. Dr. Thilo Becker, TOMRA Recycling will present the latest insights during his lecture at the Dornbirn-GFC 2024. The global textile fiber market, which is now estimated to be worth €270 billion, is an essential part of the global economic landscape. However, as textile production has doubled worldwide in the last 20 years, it is also an industry putting tremendous strain on our already dwindling virgin resources and compromising the health of our planet. Today, the textile industry is one of the largest contributors to global emissions. To create a circular textiles value chain, all stakeholders must collaborate to transform design and production processes, improve technological efficiencies, and alter the way consumers purchase, use, and dispose of textiles. When used textiles are collected, sorted, and recycled in a closed loop, they can reduce the environmental impact of the textile industry and create a more profitable and resilient business model. 63rd Dornbirn GFC 2024 & 4th Dornbirn GFC Innovation Day, 11 - 13 September, Dornbirn, Austria, Live in person & Online Programme + Information: www.dornbirn-gfc.com #fiber #circulareconomy #technology #sustainable #sustainability #fibercongress #dornbirngfc #textileindustry #fiberinnovation #circulareconomy #sustainable #sustainableagriculture #fibercongress #dornbirngfc #recycling
