Abstract:
The garment industry has become the backbone of the economy of Bangladesh. About three million people are involved with garment and textile industries. It is essential to promote sustainability in this large industrial sector. When the world garment market and companies are focusing on environment friendly products, the Bangladeshi garment and textile industries are far beyond of it and it poses a risk of losing the world market. It is high time to adopt special strategies and an approach towards sustainability. This research work emphasis to make the life cycle approach of manufactured produc

This thesis examined how the sustainability of laminated and coated textile barriers can be compared by analysing them through an environmental and functional perspective. This was done by building an evaluation model in which an analysis of the functional performance and an analysis of the environmental performance was combined and applied on a case study of a laminated and a coated material used for workwear. A Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) was used to evaluate the environmental impact. To evaluate the functional performance a series of material testing was made for tear strength, waterproofne

Abstract:
The contemporary world landscape is epitomised by a highly globalised world economy, where neo-liberal agendas push for ultimate competitiveness and much of the manufacturing and production processes have been relocated from core to semi-peripheral countries. To be able to compete in the global arena, many developing nations and newly emerging economies have sacrificed an approach to sustainable development by neglecting social and ecological aspects. A showcase of such unsustainable growth in recent years can be observed in Tirupur, South India. Tirupur’s heavy export orientation of ready-kni

: It is problematic from an environmental point of view when consumers have damaged or worn out textiles and need to dispose of them (Domina and Koch, 2002).

Textiles are nearly 100 percent recyclable and according to Hawley (2006), nothing in the textile and apparel industry consequently should be wasted. It will be a major positive impact on the environment if we can reduce the amounts of textile waste through recycling. In addition, recy

A value chain for a textile production can be described as transforming a crop into a textile, then turn the textile into a fabric, then create a product from that fabric - a horizontal chain from farm to fabric.

Abstract:
For this thesis, the concept of e-mass customization, supported through e-commerceand away from mass production is considered as an alternative and sustainable strategyfor fashion and textile companies of western markets. Since the need for selfactualization and individualization increases among western societies, in addition tosustainably conscious consumption patterns, mass customization is one strategicsolution to face current market trends. In accordance to that, it is aimed to find highlyflexible supply chain possibilities suitable for this volatile industry sector. This isaccompanied by

Purpose The purpose of this thesis is to develop a theoretical framework for sustainable product design, targeting aesthetic design elements, as part of product development by applying the Ted’s 10 methodology for textile environment and the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Design/Methodology/approach The thesis follows a deductive and inductive multi – method approach. A systematic literature review gives insights into existing literature on product design; the interviews with two experts evaluate the theoretical framework based on the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the implications an

Den här rapporten är en studie av textilindustrin. Rapporten ingår i kursen Examensarbete inom industriell produktion som ingår i Civilingenjörsprogrammet Maskinteknik. Studien är relevant i tiden då mycket forskning sker för att lösa de nuvarande respektive framtida problemen. Vi konsumerar mycket textilier, nästan 14 kg per person per år, varav 10kg är bara kläder. En stor mängd av dessa textilier, hela 73 procent, går till spillo istället för att återanvändas eller återvinnas. Samtidigt produceras också många nya textilier med icke-hållbara resurser som bland annat fossila energikällor och

Abstract:
Due to greater awareness of the need to conserve the world&apos;s resources - one direction is to promote products with less environmental impact during manufacturing processes. There are different perspectives to understand what is driving this development towards environmental production. On one hand, producers manage their production with less environmental impact either of an integrated environmental management of the company or because of regulatory requirements in steering manufacturing, especially under circumstances in Sweden. The development may also be because of responding to market

Abstract:
Translating the conceptual term of sustainability into materials and exploring bio plastics in order to generate visually and tacitly intriguing objects are the aims for this project. Other designers and previous projects in the field of textile design showed how the material works in a small scale. This project used the material’s design properties to generate groups of object elements. The three main design properties of the material, transparency, biomorph expression and flexibility, and their opposites, opaqueness, geometric expression and stiffness, were combined in different sets which r

Esta dissertação tem como objeto de estudo os processos de transferência de imagens para substratos têxteis destinados à confecção de roupas de moda e vestuário sob enfoque ambiental. Hoje a moda é uma poderosa indutora de consumo, sendo a estampa um de seus mais importantes recursos. A etapa de beneficiamento têxtil – chamada de estamparia – consome grandes volumes de recursos naturais e de produtos químicos nocivos ao meio ambiente e à saúde do prestador de serviço. Nesse cenário, analisam-se os impactos ambientais através das principais entradas de matéria-prima – água, produto químico e en

Abstract:
The fashion industry is not only known for its creativity and innovation, but also for its contribution to environmental pollution, climate change as well as for social imbalances and poverty. Ecological and societal standards have so far only played a minor role in this industry for production and distribution as well as for consumers for their consumption and disposal behaviour. However, in order to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals and prevent the maximum damage caused by pollution and exploitation, it is necessary to act more rapidly and consistently.

Purpose: The purpose of this research paper is to examine the potential of the Swedish textile industry to achieve more sustainability in the home textile segment, through establishing a local value chain for local consumption. The aim is to explore the potential of both the supply and demand side of the local market. For the supply, or the industry perspective, the goal is to show companies the relevant aspects to consider when choosing to establish a local value chain in Sweden, with a focus on the home textile segment. For the demand, or the consumer perspective, the objective is to find ou
