Today marks a significant milestone on a journey towards sustainable and circular fashion. The Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) has come into force, setting the stage for transformative changes in the textile industry over the coming years. This regulation ensures that products are designed to last longer, be easily repaired, and be recyclable, with a focus on incorporating recycled content. Such measures are crucial for maintaining material circulation and protecting biodiversity by reducing the need for new cultivated land. The forthcoming digital product passport will further enhance transparency, allowing consumers to make more informed and sustainable choices. By the time my son fits those jeans, he might be much more aware of where and how they were produced. He could be proud to make a sustainable choice and wear material that has been in circulation for a long time, just like in the first picture where he's wearing an INFINNA hoodie. We can be proud that our generation made it possible. I am privileged to have contributed to the preparation of this regulation, offering insights from a recycler's perspective. Infinited Fiber Company stands at the heart of this initiative, providing innovative solutions that will facilitate the regulation's implementation. I am eager to witness the unfolding impact of these changes. In the coming weeks, I will dive deeper into how this regulation supports the industry's shift from a linear to a circular model and what additional steps are needed to drive this transformation. #SustainableFashion #CircularEconomy #Ecodesign #Sustainability #GreenRegulation #Biodiversity #Recycling #EcoFriendly #InnovativeSolutions #FashionRevolution #ClimateAction #Infinna #ESPR #InfinitedFiber #CircularFashion #TextileRecycling #SustainableDevelopment

♻️ #CircularFashion: Closing the Loop on Clothing ♻️ The fashion industry is one of the world's most polluting, with millions of tons of clothing ending up in landfills each year. 🔴 According to estimates, to make a single cotton t-shirt, 2,700 liters of fresh water are required, enough to meet one person’s drinking needs for 2.5 years. 🔴 Textile production is estimated to be responsible for about 20% of global clean water pollution from dyeing and finishing products. 🔴 10% of global carbon emissions – more than international flights and maritime shipping combined. 🔴 Less than half of used clothes are collected for reuse or recycling, and only 1% are recycled into new clothes. A circular approach to fashion offers a more sustainable and stylish way forward. 👗♻️ Circular fashion strategies include: ✅ Designing for durability, repairability, and recyclability ✅ Using recycled and renewable materials ✅ Promoting reuse and rental models By embracing circularity, fashion brands and consumers can: 👖 Reduce waste and environmental impact across the clothing lifecycle 💧 Conserve resources and reduce reliance on virgin raw materials 💰 Create new business models and revenue streams Circular fashion innovators are proving that style and sustainability can go hand in hand. 🌿 How can you incorporate circular principles into fashion choices and habits? 🤔 #CircularFashion #Sustainabilty #CircularDisruption 🔗 Source:: European Parliament- The impact of textile production and waste on the environment Join us Circular Disruption

🌿 Embracing Sustainable Textiles for a Better Tomorrow 🌍 In one way or another, every industry is making an effort towards the equilibrium, and the textile sector is in the forefront of the business with a vision of Sustainability. 🌱 Sustainable textiles are not just green fabrics; they speak the conscious efforts to curb wastage, save resources, and foster fair trade practices, all at the same time. Such products range from organic cotton to ingenious recycling and they give both the brands and the consumers ability to effect a change. Why is it necessary? 🔹 10% of the global CO2 emissions is from the fashion industry; sustainable textiles would be able to address such issues. 🔹 They aid in the conservation of water and water pollution resulting in healthier ecosystems. 🔹 It goes without saying that fair trade helps in the payment of living wages and safe work environments for workers in the textile industry everywhere. Innovation, what drives everything, is at the core of sustainability. From the use of compostable yarns to the practice of producing goods with nothing left to waste- such is the evolution of eco-friendly fabrics that is imaginative yet responsible. 💡 One can change the world. One should not change the world. One can sew in a new thread. Working towards a future where eco-friendliness in practices will not be at loggerheads with fashion will be enjoyable. 🌟 In what ways are you active in the popularization of sustainable textiles?

✨ Sustainable Fashion👗 Sustainable fashion/ clothing refers to garments that are produced and consumed in a way that minimizes their environmental impact throughout their entire life cycle. This includes the sourcing of raw materials, manufacturing processes, distribution, use, and disposal or recycling. It may surprise you to learn that the fashion industry produces about 10% of annual global carbon emissions, which is more than all maritime shipping and international flights combined. What's more, fashion's emissions of harmful greenhouse gases are projected to grow to 25% percent by 2050 💣 . Sustainable Fashion Practices 👇 ... 1️⃣ Materials: Opting for sustainable materials that are produced without or with less synthetic pesticides/fertilizers, require less water and are renewable i.e organic cotton, hemp, bamboo etc. 2️⃣ Production Processes: Water Conservation: Invest in techniques and technologies to reduce water usage during manufacturing. Closed-Loop Systems: Recycling and reusing water and chemicals in the production process. 3️⃣ Fair Labor Practices: Ensuring that workers in the supply chain are treated ethically, paid fair wages, and provided with safe working conditions. 4️⃣ Supply Chain Transparency: Openly share information about your supply chains, manufacturing processes, and sourcing practices. 5️⃣ Slow Fashion: Promoting the idea of fewer, high-quality pieces that are timeless and durable, reducing the need for constant consumption. 6️⃣ Circular Economy: Encouraging recycling, up-cycling, and designing products with the end of life in mind to minimize waste. Second-hand and Vintage: Supporting the purchase of used or vintage clothing to extend the life cycle of garments. 7️⃣ Energy Efficiency: Using renewable energy sources in manufacturing and distribution processes. Which of these practices have you put in place?
