ZDHC releases new guidelines for fibre production
29/04/2020
According to the group, which works to reduce the textile industry’s chemical footprint, the initial focus of the document is the fibre group viscose and modal. The guidelines give brands and manufacturing facilities that produce man-made cellulosic fibres (MMCF) an outline for approaching emissions control as well as the recovery of sulphur compounds, part of the inputs, and by-products generated during the production process.
“This document gives fibre manufacturers essential guidance and helps to make tangible progress by providing targets to move forward and tackle emissions in a meaningful way. The guidelines, which can be seen here, support ZDHC’s holistic approach to transforming the entire value chain,” said Phil Townsend, sustainable raw materials specialist.
