Circular Fashion Sample Clauses

Circular Fashion. The textile and clothing industry is a big player in the European manufacturing industry. In 2019, 1.5 million people were employed in 160,000 textile and clothing companies in the EU-27. All these companies accounted for a turnover of €162 billion and they invested €5 billion. This resulted in a 5% share of employees and a 2% share of the value-added goods in the total manufacturing activities in Europe (Euratex, 2019). The appearance of the section about sustainability and circular economy in the report of Euratex also indicates the importance of a circular economy in this industry. The clothing industry in specific represents more than 60% of the textile and clothing industry and it will probably stay the most used application in the coming years. Above all, the production of clothing has almost doubled in the last 15 years (EMF, 2017). In the clothing industry, the limits of the present ‘take-make-waste’ model are extremely apparent (Xxxxxxxxx, 2018). Already in 2014, Xxxxxxxxx (2014) mentioned that the textile and clothing industry is one of the most polluting industries in the world. He stated that this is due to the use of chemicals, the high consumption of water and energy, the huge fuel consumption for transportation and the use of non- biodegradable packaging materials (Choudhury, 2014). Six years later, textile and clothing production is still an important component in the world’s pollution (Ki, Chong & Xx-Xxxxxxxxxx, 2020). In the report ‘A new textiles economy: Redesigning fashion's future’ (2017) of the EMF, three reasons are mentioned why the current fashion industry is extremely wasteful: (1) clothing is massively underutilized, (2) less than 1% of the material used to produce clothing is recycled into new clothing and (3) the negative impact of the linear system on the environment and people. Due to the adverse side effects, such as economic loss, environmental destruction, and threats to human well-being of the ‘take-make-waste’ model, a transition to a circular economy is necessary (Ki, Park & Xx- Xxxxxxxxxx, 2020). This transition will require significant changes in the production and consumption models (Xxxxxxxxx, 2018). The EMF (2020) stated in its report “Vision of a circular economy for fashion” that all materials in the fashion industry should first be cycled through the technical cycle loops of reusing, repairing, remaking, and recycling. When searching for research about circular indicators in the fashion industry, it is clear th...
