3. What is Textile Recycling?
Textile recycling is the method of reusing or reprocessing used clothing,
fibrous material & clothing scraps from the manufacturing process.
Some of the textile factories are made new pieceS of fabric
from old fabric. it is called textile recycling.

4. THE PROCESS OF TEXTILE RECYCLING
Traditional sources of textile waste come from three different sources:
1.Fiber, yarn, and fabric processing
2.Sewn products manufacture
3.Disc Textile and cutting wastes at the manufacturing level are
considered pre-consumer waste and are easier to recycle because the
fibers, dyes, and finishes are known and in like-new condition.

5. Percentage usage of discarded textiles Of all the old
clothing,
70 % is used as second hand clothing,
6 % is waste bags and zips,
8 % is used for reclaiming fibers and making
recycled products,
7 % is used as wiping material and the
remaining 9 % is shredded and used as
stuffing.
It is a surprising fact that over 70 percent of the
world’s population uses second
hand clothing.
Raw materials acquired out of recycled fabrics
cost less; making it an attractive
feature for manufacturers.

6. Traditional sources of textile waste come
from three different sources:
Fiber , yarn and fabric processing.

7. Recycling operation

8. The recycling process of natural fibers
For textile to be recycle, there are fundamental difference between natural and
synthetic fiber.
For Natural Textiles:
 The incoming unwearable material is sorted by type of material and color
 Textiles are then pulled into fibers or shredded
 The yarn is then cleaned and mixed through a carding process
 Then the yarn is re-spun and ready for subsequent use in weaving or knitting
 Then the yarn in re-spun and ready for subsequent use in weaving or knitting

9. Denim recycling project
• Cotton is sensitive to plagues and deceases
• Therefore a lot of chemicals are used
• Growing cotton requires a lot of water
• Cotton grows on valuable soil that is also fit for food.

10. Recycling denim project with G star
Process
Collecting, recovering fibers, fabric production, garment production G‐Star, a
major international denim brand decided to work with us and introduces a small
collection in which 10% of the total product consists of recovered cotton fibers,
thus creating 10% of the results mentioned above. Further development is now
focused on raising the percentage of recycled fibers by the production of a
higher quality of fibers in the
recycling process.

11. Benefits of Textile & Clothing Recycling
Clothing & textile recycling reduces the need for
landfill space.
Clothing & textile recycling reduces pressure on
new resources.
Clothing & textile recycling encourages the
development of additional markets.
Clothing & textile recycling results in less pollution
and energy savings. This includes:
i. Savings of energy consumption when processing.
ii. Less effluent.
iii. Reduction of demand for dyes and fixing agents.

12. Financial Benefits
 Make money selling recycling
 Community Financial Benefits

20. Problem
• Too much sent to landfill
– High cost
– Taking unnecessary space and land
• Textile industry is “hidden”
– Black markets
– Not approved by
• Lack of government support
• Lack of knowledge and support of system

21. Parties Involving
• Textile producers(pre- consumers)
• Textile consumers
– Pre vs. Post
• Textile recycling pipeline participants
– Charities and second hand retailers
– Rag dealers- Graders
– Market sellers
– Engineers, fashion designers, industry
leaders

22. Discussion of proposed solutions Consumers:
• Donate to charities, never through textiles into the trash
• Advocate for textile recycling in your local municipality
Pre- Consumers:
• Proper disposal for “un-wearables” sold to poorer countries
• Incineration of reclaimed fiber

23. Environmentally Responsible Production
• Ethical fashion-
An approach to:
Design, Sourcing, & Manufacture
of clothing which is both socially and
environmentally conscious and Sustainable.

24. Retooled Fashion

25. New Products from Old

27. GLOSSARY OF TECHNICAL TERMS RELATED TO RECYCLED FABRICS
AND FIBERS
1.CLIPPINGS
2. CREAM
3. DEADSTOCK
4. MILL OVERRUNS
5. MUNGO
6.PET
7. POST-CONSUMER TEXTILE WASTE
8. PRE-CONSUMER TEXTILE WASTE
9. SHODDY
10. VINTAGE USED CLOTHING
11. WIPERS

28. Limitation of textile product Recycling
• High upfront capital costs
• Recycling sites are always unhygienic, unsafe and
unsightly
• Products from recycled waste may not be durable
• Recycling might not be inexpensive
• Recycling is not widespread on large scale

32. We can learn this slide
 To know about Textile recycling.
 Also acquainted Textile wastes categories.
 Percentage usage of discarded textiles
 Introduce recycling operation.
 Textile product recycling behaviors.
 Values for second hand product.
 Cotton and Denim fabric recycling process.

33. CONCLUSION
RECYCLING IN THE TEXTILE AND CLOTHING SECTOR CAN TAKE SEVERAL FORMS. THE BEST KNOWN METHOD
INVOLVES THE MANUFACTURE OF A TEXTILE OR CLOTHING PRODUCT FROM RECYCLED CONSUMER WASTE—SUCH
AS PLASTIC BOTTLES OR WASTE POLYESTER YARNS OR FABRICS. OTHER FORMS INVOLVE THE REUSE OF WASTE
TEXTILE AND CLOTHING PRODUCTS IN A WAY WHICH AVOIDS THROWING THE ITEMS AWAY, SUCH AS: SHREDDING
THE PRODUCTS INTO FIBERS FOR SOUND INSULATION; REDISTRIBUTING THE ITEMS IN THE FORM OF SECOND-HAND
CLOTHING VIA CHARITY SHOPS OR TEXTILE MERCHANTS (ALSO KNOWN AS RAG COLLECTORS); AND REUSING
FABRICS FOR “ECO-FASHION”.
