Circle-8 Textile Ecosystems

Circle Economy has come up with the first-of-its-kind ‘Circularity Gap Report’ that examines how materials flow throughout the entire textile value chain, from design to post-consumer management. It explores how materials are extracted, transformed and managed at their end-of-life—from cotton farming and petrochemical production to spinning, weaving and dyeing to product assembly and distribution—and delves into the resource and energy inputs of each stage.
