Globalization has made it easier than ever to ignore where our clothes come from. The fashion industry has complex connections to many other fields, including manufacturing, advertising, production of raw materials, transportation and retailing. Begin to educate consumers about the importance of APPAREL STANDARDS.
At FashionTT's Fashion UPGRADE! Workshop, Violet Davis-Maurice provided great insight into creating garments that meet local and international standards.
Packaging textiles include all textile packing material for industrial, agricultural and other goods
It is used to contain, carry, store, and protect goods
Packing material demand and economic growth, industrial production and trade
Growing need for reusable packages & containers gives a new opportunities for textile products
Technical textiles, used in packaging & subsequent transportation are called “PACKTECH.”
The application of technical textile to building and construction is due to some specific properties of textile fibers like, tenacity, strength, light weight, comparatively low cost, can and resistance to chemical plus to that ability of resisting the UV light. Basically technical textiles are applicable in different areas for different purpose.

Desde 2015, Hopper ha ayudado a más de 8 millones de usuarios alrededor del mundo a ahorrar dinero en la compra de pasajes aéreos.
Hopper, es una aplicación móvil lanzada a inicios de 2015 que ha contribuido a ahorrar dinero en vuelos, prediciendo los precios de los pasajes con una exactitud del 95 % y notifica al usuario acerca de cuándo es el momento oportuno para comprar el tiquete más barato.
Por lo general, encontrar el mejor precio en un pasaje de avión puede ser un proceso frustrante, las tarifas no son del todo transparentes, nos son fijas y suelen generar confusiones al momento de realizar la compra. Además, los tiquetes aéreos son uno de los gastos más grandes que una familia promedio suele hacer al momento de querer viajar.
Hopper estima los precios a futuro basándose en el análisis de información histórica y modelos predictivos. Aproximadamente 1 de cada 3 veces el precio actual será el mejor posible. Pero el 75 % de las veces, el precio del vuelo estará más bajo en algún momento del futuro. Seguir las recomendación de esta app le ayudará a conseguir un vuelo más barato o al mismo valor que cuando se inició la búsqueda.
Esta aplicación se encuentra disponible en iOS y Android (de momento en inglés). Sin spam, sin anuncios y sin ventanas emergentes.
La diferencia de esta app con otros sitios o aplicaciones que muestran las tarifas más económicas en el momento, es que Hopper permite elegir un itinerario de vuelo y dejar que la aplicación haga el trabajo de monitorear los precios y notificar cuando es realmente el momento en que el pasaje estará lo más barato posible.
The eco system or environment ( made up of living organisms and non-living organisms such as air, water, and mineral soil) has a movement of its own, depends on the balancing cycle.
This cycle should be unimpaired, the efforts to maintain the cycle is called eco-friendly.
Spirit Level M-Level ECO
Bamboo spirit level – strong, durable, tough and sustainable
Particularly suitable for sensitive surfaces such as window sills, marble, granite, wood, etc.
Despite being categorized as a “Wood Level”, bamboo is actually grass, not wood
Bamboo is the fastest growing plant on earth, with a tensile strength comparable to steel
The product is available in the following lengths:
M-Level 60 ECO 60 cm (Art-No. 660000)
M-Level 120 ECO 120 cm (Art-No. 660010)
This presentation mainly focuses on the concept of Eco-label related to quality control and the main requirements needed in order to certify your product at Ecolabel.
GOTS and Okeo-Tex are most widely used certified standards for quality product and processing of production to finished products of textiles.
The principle is production of textile products with in green environment and use of natural raw material as input and reduce environmental pollution.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Lecture 12 a eco labels
1. Eco labels R.B.Chavan Department of Textile Technology Indian Institute of Technology Hauz-Khas, New Delhi 110016 [email_address]
2. THE NEED FOR AN ECO-LABEL Consumers concern for adverse impacts of industrial pollution on the environment, health. Mounting pressure on industry to adopt “ eco-friendly” chemicals and manufacturing processes particularly in the textile sector. Eco-labels that certify the “eco-friendliness” of the textile product are now increasingly demanded by consumers. Currently, these are required mainly in Western Europe, with Germany being the most demanding
3. Exporters facing more stringent environmental standards in the international marketplace. Manufacturers wishing to protect their existing markets and expand into new ones may well be required to obtain an eco-label that is acceptable to their client. Experience in developing country has shown that without an eco-label: · some buyer preferences were being directed elsewhere; · where this was not the case then the lack of an eco-label was used as leverage to negotiate prices down.
4.
5.
6. In practice there are big differences between various eco-labelling schemes, some of which are based on detailed analysis of the environmental impacts some other systems may analyse only certain stages of the life-cycle.
7. Eco parameters Eco labels are awarded on the basis of compliance of certain eco parameters by the product. pH Formaldehyde Heavy metals (As, Pb, Cd, Cr, Co, Cu, Ni, Hg) Pesticides Chlorinated phenols Dyestuffs (specific classifications) Chlorinated organic carriers Boicidal finishes Flame retardent finishes Colour fastness Emission of volatiles Odours Different agencies will set their limit values for various eco parameters before awarding the license to the manufacturer to use their eco label on the product

10. BENEFITS OF ECO-LABELLING Enhanced export market opportunities – manufacturers and retailers of textile goods will come under increasing pressure to comply with the international eco-labels. open worldwide competition beyond 2005, securing of an eco-label will greatly assist the manufacturers and retailers in enhancing the export market opportunities. Improved product quality – through the removal of substances in the fabric that may be harmful to the customer.
11. Financial savings – process optimisation and improvements that result in saving of water, chemicals and energy. processing time RFT (Right First Time) These benefits generally offset the incremental costs of using ecofriendly chemicals or of adopting a modified process Improved environmental performance – phasing out of toxic and hazardous substances conservation in water, energy and raw material usage. This leads to a reduction in the quantities and pollution potential of various emissions .
12. Step towards ISO 14000 and ISO 9000 – quality control procedures are an integral part of product eco-labelling, easier to implement the ISO 14000 and ISO 9000 systems
13. Selection of appropriate Eco-label Buyer requirements – vary from country to country, influenced by buyer preference consumer preferences. Major export products – eco-label certificates generally apply to specific product lines only. manufacturers first wish to focus on their main export product as any loss in market share, as a result of not having an eco-label, may lead to adverse financial impacts.
14. Ease of implementation – select eco-labels where the criteria can be more readily achieved and sustained. Eco-labels based on final product quality may be easier to gain than those based on the full life cycle analysis, which takes into consideration raw material use, environmental impacts of every stage of the manufacturing process (including wastewater characteristics, air pollution and solid waste disposal), worker health, use of child labour, packaging,
