Regulatory Updates in Textiles and Fashion
Recent years have seen new regulations guiding sustainability, transparency, and human rights in the textile and fashion sectors. Key laws include the EU’s Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation and California’s Responsible Textile Act. These rules cover eco-design, digital product passports, traceability, forced labour, deforestation, and chemical use.
Why it matters: • Extended Producer Responsibility will require producers to fund textile recycling with eco-modulated fees. • Digital Product Passports will enhance product data transparency, aiding compliance and sustainability strategies. • New forced labour and deforestation laws impose stricter supply chain due diligence and bans on non-compliant goods.
What to do next: • Identify key product data gaps and invest in systems for digital traceability and lifecycle assessment. • Review supply chains for forced labour risks and prepare documentation for due diligence requirements. • Monitor updates on chemical restrictions and plan substitutions or compliance measures before deadlines.
