Transition to Greener Textiles
The fashion industry is widely believed to be the second most polluting industry in the world, coming just after oil. Clothing manufacturing comes at high environmental and social costs. The production chain of the industry is complex, involving raw materials extraction and processing, materials production, dyeing and finishing, and finished product assembly. Understanding the fiber’s origin and the traceability solution in the supply chain is the first important step to ensure that clothes are produced as ethically and sustainably as possible.
Webinar Highlights:
- Understand the essential elements of sustainable fibers and the development trend.
- Overview of the current methodologies and challenges to identify sustainable fibers.
- Learn the available solutions to enable transparency and traceability at the fiber level in the textile supply chain such as the Textile Exchange Standards Certification on organic, recycled, and animal fibers (wool, mohair, alpaca) materials, Forest Stewardship Council certification and Better Cotton’s Chain of Custody verification.
