Fascinating look at how we can design business models to be circular from the start!
How can we #design business models to be #circular from the outset? Find out in the The #CircularEconomy Show! In our latest episode, we explored #EPR for textiles with our own @Valérie Boiten and the Australian Fashion Council (AFC)’s Danielle Kent, discussed different types of circular business models with ACS (Advanced Clothing Solutions), and chatted to Julie Hjort about her work at the DDC – Danish Design Center. Now available to watch on catch-up. ⬇️https://lnkd.in/ebNN7hhv

#TextileWasteToBeautifulColors Textile waste can be recycled to create colored dyes through various innovative processes aimed at sustainability and reducing environmental impact. FiberColors® by Archroma represent a patent-pending technology that transforms pre- and post-consumer fashion and textile waste into beautiful upcycled colors. These colors are synthesized using at least 50% waste-based raw materials, making a significant contribution to the circular economy in the fashion and textiles industry. #CraftingCommunithWithaSustainableMind Daphne Koh https://lnkd.in/g_NagTvs

The fashion industry stands as one of the greatest contributors to environmental pollution, in fact less than 1 percent of fashion textiles are recycled, leading to a continuous stream of products ending up in landfills or being incinerated every second worldwide. Central to our ethos is building circularity into our business model. How? Our focus has been on designing fashion pieces that outlive seasons and trends, timeless essentials that you reach for time and again for years to come. Through our innovative manufacturing technology, Technical Knitting, we utilize yarn efficiently and significantly reduce our pre-consumer textile waste from an average of 15% to less than 1%. Embracing a circular economy is not just a choice but a necessity. Through our Collective Continuum initiative, all our garments are designed with recyclability in mind, ensuring they can be recycled through our partnership with SuperCircle. To support more responsible recycling of garments as a whole, we'll also cover the cost of recycling for non &OR pieces. Source: The Business of Fashion #fashionindustry #sustainability #textilewaste

We continue to consume at an ever-increasing rate! Data published on Earth.org paints a disturbing picture: fast fashion brands are now producing twice as many garments as they did in the year 2000. This dramatic increase in production has led to a rise in textile waste, both pre- and post-production. A significant amount of materials are wasted during production, with estimates suggesting that approximately 15% of fabrics intended for clothing ends up as waste without ever being used. Moreover, consider this startling statistic from 2012 (which may have worsened since): around 60% of the roughly 150 million garments produced globally in 2012 were discarded within a few years of their creation. What can you do to limit this waste and pollution? There are several actions you can take on a personal level: Take responsibility. Be mindful of your clothing consumption and prioritize reusing garments. On a public level, engage with communities and organizations that raise awareness of this issue. Together, you can exert pressure on those who disregard environmental concerns and build a collective force that policymakers cannot ignore as they shape the future of fast fashion policy. #FastFashionImpact #SustainableConsumption #TextileWaste #EcoFriendlyFashion #ReduceReuseRecycle #ConsciousConsumerism #FashionPollution #EarthOrgStatistics #ClothingWasteCrisis #WardrobeResponsibility #FashionSustainability #EnvironmentalAwareness #GarmentLifecycle #PolicyChangeFashion #GlobalTextileChallenge

In our most recent blog post our CEO and Founder, Adam Root, explains how the textiles industry has the opportunity to be part of the solution for microfibre capture. With the rise of fast fashion and the design of clothes for short term use, the contrast to the reuse and repair model from pastimes is stark. Here at Matter, we’re aware that brands are facing several challenges in overcoming their contribution to microplastic pollution, so we are working together with them to face this problem. We have tools for change, we just need to use them, together. Read the full blog here: https://lnkd.in/egyRx9pT

Today, the fashion industry faces the challenge of minimizing its environmental impact, and one key solution lies in the adoption of sustainable machines for crafting eco-friendly fabrics. These machines play a crucial role in transforming the way textiles are produced, ensuring a more environmentally conscious approach that resonates with the growing demand for sustainable fashion. At the forefront of this movement is the utilization of sustainable machines in denim production. As a committed eco-friendly denim manufacturing facility, we exemplify our dedication by selecting machinery that aligns with our green ethos. Our chosen sustainable fabric processing and finishing equipment utilizes ozone gas instead of conventional water and chemical methods. This innovative approach offers several benefits: • Chemicals-free • Low energy consumption • Zero discharge technology • Reduced CO2 emissions By embracing these eco-friendly machines, we do not only reduce our ecological footprint but also establish a model for a more sustainable future in the fashion industry. In the spirit of promoting sustainable choices, we invite you to be part of the change. Your conscious decisions in selecting fashion items can contribute to a more sustainable world. Choose fashion that not only reflects your style but also considers the environment. Join us at Badjatex, where fashion meets sustainability, and together, let's shape a greener, more responsible future! #Badjatex #BraveGeneration #SustainableDenim

Sustainable fashion, it is reality with COEX®. In recent years, the fashion industry has been increasingly in the spotlight for its environmental impact, particularly for production and dispersion of microplastics. Fortunately, some of the most relevant textile companies have become aware of the problem and launched significant initiatives to reduce the presence of microplastics in their processes. Here are some examples: - reduce, where possible, the use of polyester and polyamide in favor of natural raw materials such as wool, cotton, linen. - avoid the production of fabrics composed of multiple materials and therefore hard to biodegrade (e.g., polyester + polyamide + cotton). - to stay in touch with raw material suppliers, especially R&D, to be up-to-date and open to new and more sustainable solutions. These are certainly ambitious goals, but indispensable for the preservation of nature and humans. Our COEX® fabrics are of plant origin, they are natural, they are biodegradable, they do not release microplastics or chemicals, either on the fabric or in the environment, and above all they are inherently fireproof. With COEX® technology, the future is already here! #coexnaturallyfireproof #microplastics #sustainability #nature #thinkgreen
