Driving the decarbonization of the textile industry
We connect all sector stakeholders to accelerate the transition towards a sustainable and competitive future.
The textile industry faces significant pressure to achieve ambitious decarbonization goals
Primarily due to the consumption of materials and resources needed to produce 53 million tons of fibers per year, of which¹:

- 12% is lost in the production process
- 1% is recycled into garments
- 73% ends up as waste
- Energy and water consumption (up to 20,000 liters per ton of cotton fabric)
- Polluting waste derived from dyeing compounds and color treatment processes
- Resulting in a carbon footprint of 270 kg per inhabitant
The challenges of the textile industry are many, but could be synthesized into:
- Pressure from environmental regulations, especially in Europe: EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism
- Emission reduction commitments from brands
- Demand sensitivity for Net-Zero COâ‚‚ products, especially from Millennials and Gen Z
