Types of textile waste in the clothing industry

Abstract

Textile waste obtained from the activity of garment enterprises, but also as a result of clothing consumption, contributes significantly to environmental pollution. The circular economy strategy promoted today, which includes the production of raw materials, weaving, cutting, sewing, delivery, purchase, wearing and reuse, encompasses a complete cycle with the possibility of zero effect in the production of textile waste. The elimination of textile waste is one of the current problems and needs to be studied individually, being influenced by several factors.
