Sustainable Textile Production Advances with New Policies and Certifications
The textile industry is evolving with new sustainability policies and certifications shaping production and marketing. Certifications like OEKO-TEX®, Bluesign®, GOTS, and ZDHC set standards on chemical safety, environmental impact, and labor rights. European regulations, such as the REACH and upcoming Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation, increase requirements for transparency and eco-friendly practices. Proposed laws in New York and France aim to further reduce waste and promote circular economy principles. Companies like EverDye exemplify leadership by adopting low-energy dyeing methods and bio-based pigments in line with these standards.
Why it matters:
- Policies and certifications address environmental, social, and transparency challenges in textiles.
- They encourage durable, recyclable, and less harmful textile production methods.
- Early adopters gain consumer trust and competitive advantages.
What to do next:
- Learn about key textile certifications to ensure sustainable sourcing.
- Review your supply chain for compliance with emerging regulations.
