According to figures from the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), every year the fashion industry uses 93 billion cubic meters of water — enough to meet the consumption needs of five million people. The apparel industry makes up an important part of the global economy, however, it also damages the environment excessively. Apparel production makes up 10% of the carbon emissions. at this pace, the fashion industry’s greenhouse gas emissions will surge more than 50 % by 2030! As textile industry faces increasing global pressure to make changes, it is worth noting that Taiwan’s textile industry has strong knowledge and expertise on material innovations which designs and creates sustainable fabrics using natural and recyclable materials with eco-friendly energy.
To cope with the impact of climate change, governments, society, and enterprises around the world are all moving towards the goal of global net-zero emissions. Both the global textile industry and Taiwan are facing the challenge of climate change, and with the improvement of chip manufacturing technology, the consumption of water, electricity, and resources is also increasing. ESG and sustainable development have become the key competitiveness of Taiwan's textile industry chain resilience in the next decade.
Over the years, Taiwan has become the top choice of many international leading brands in going green. To assist Taiwan’s textile industry further its’ efforts on expanding their green products to the global market, with the support of the Bureau of Foreign Trade, the Taiwan Textile Federation (TTF) has planned a three-episode online new product launch program that is set to release in March, April and May.
