Resource conservation

• Reduce natural resource consumption: Environmentally friendly fabrics are usually made from renewable resources or recycled materials. For example, fabrics made from natural plants such as hemp and bamboo fibers have a short growth cycle and can be quickly regenerated. Compared to traditional fiber materials such as cotton that require long-term growth, they can effectively reduce the occupation and consumption of land, water, and other resources.

• Reduce energy consumption: During the production process, environmentally friendly fabrics are often more energy-efficient than traditional fabrics. Recycling polyester fibers involves reprocessing discarded plastic bottles and other materials, which can significantly reduce energy consumption compared to extracting polyester fibers from raw resources such as crude oil.

Pollution reduction

• Reduce chemical pollution: Many environmentally friendly fabrics try to avoid or minimize the use of harmful chemicals in the production process. For example, organic cotton does not use fertilizers or pesticides during the planting process, reducing chemical pollution to soil, water sources, and air from the source, and protecting the ecological environment and biodiversity. At the same time, in the process of fabric processing, the dyeing and finishing techniques used for environmentally friendly fabrics also pay more attention to environmental protection, using natural dyes or low toxicity, low residue chemical dyes to reduce the pollution of printing and dyeing wastewater to water bodies.

• Reduce waste pollution: Degradable fabrics in environmentally friendly fabrics, such as those made from natural cellulose or protein, can decompose quickly in the natural environment after disposal, and will not form long-term difficult to degrade garbage like traditional synthetic fabrics, thereby reducing pollution to the environment such as soil and oceans. In addition, promoting environmentally friendly fabrics can also promote the development of the textile recycling industry and reduce environmental pollution caused by a large amount of discarded textiles.

Addressing climate change

• Low carbon emissions: The production and use of some environmentally friendly fabrics can reduce carbon emissions. For example, bamboo fiber has a strong ability to absorb carbon dioxide during its growth process and can serve as a certain carbon sink. Moreover, its processing is relatively simple, consumes less energy, and has lower carbon dioxide emissions. In contrast, the production of traditional synthetic fiber fabrics often comes with higher carbon emissions, which have a significant impact on global climate change.

• Sustainable development assistance: The promotion of environmentally friendly fabrics conforms to the global trend of sustainable development and helps promote the transformation of the entire textile and clothing industry towards low-carbon and environmentally friendly directions. By using environmentally friendly fabrics, companies can reduce their own environmental footprint, contribute to addressing climate change, and guide consumers to form a green consumption concept, promoting sustainable development of the entire society.
