Textile in Numbers
Did you know every second an equivalent of one garbage tuck of textiles is landfilled or incinerated?
We are buying more clothes and throwing them away more quickly!
- 73% clothing is sent to landfills
- 1% material used in textile production comes from recycled sources
More and more garments are being thrown away after fewer uses, as clothes and styles now have shorter lives and priced at lower values.
Clothing utilization has decreased by 36% in last 15 years – at the same time clothing production has doubled!
More apparel production means more CO2 emissions, more usage of water, more chemicals, – simply put, significant irreversible impact on our environment.
Annual greenhouse gas emissions from textile industry exceed that of all international flights and maritime shipping combined.
