Environmentally friendly fabrics for daily use refer to fabrics that are widely used in daily life and pay attention to environmental protection, health, and sustainability. These fabrics are typically made from renewable or natural materials and have lower environmental impact. Here are some common eco-friendly fabrics for daily use:
1. Organic cotton: Organic cotton is cotton produced in agriculture without the use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and genetically modified technologies. It adopts natural cultivation methods, is environmentally friendly, and gentle on the skin, suitable for people with sensitive skin.
2. RPET fabric (recycled polyester fabric): This fabric is made from recycled PET bottles (such as cola bottles) through a series of treatments. It realizes the reuse of plastic waste, reduces energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions, and is a very environmentally friendly fabric.
3. Bamboo fiber: Bamboo fiber is a fiber extracted from bamboo, which has natural antibacterial, moisture absorbing, breathable, soft and comfortable characteristics. Bamboo has a fast growth rate and strong regeneration ability, so bamboo fiber fabric is also a sustainable and environmentally friendly choice.
4. Soy protein fiber: This is a fiber made from soy protein, which has a cashmere like feel and a silk like luster, while also being breathable and warm. The production process of soy protein fiber is environmentally friendly, and the product is biodegradable.
5. Hemp fiber: including flax, ramie, etc., these fibers have the characteristics of high strength, good moisture absorption, and strong breathability. The planting and processing process of hemp fiber is relatively environmentally friendly, and the products are durable.
6. Modal: Modal is a fiber made from beech wood pulp, characterized by softness, smoothness, and good breathability. It is often used in the production of intimate clothing such as underwear and pajamas, and is highly favored for its environmental friendliness and comfort.
7. Organic wool: Organic wool is produced on farms without chemicals or genetically modified organisms, with free range sheep and grown entirely in nature. This type of wool is not only environmentally friendly, but also has good warmth retention, making it suitable for making high-end wool products.
8. Tencel: Tencel is a fabric made from wood pulp fibers, also known as Lyocell fibers. It has various excellent properties of natural fibers and synthetic fibers, such as softness, smoothness, and good breathability. Meanwhile, the production process of Tencel is environmentally friendly and the products are biodegradable.
9. Regenerated cellulose fiber: This type of fiber includes regenerated bamboo fiber, regenerated hemp fiber, etc., which are made by recycling and reusing waste textiles or other cellulose materials. This production method helps to reduce waste and environmental pollution.
These eco-friendly fabrics not only meet people's needs for fashion and comfort, but also reflect their concern and responsibility for environmental protection. With the increasing awareness of environmental protection among people, the application of these fabrics in the market is becoming more and more widespread.
