Sustainability

Responsible sourcing, from fibre to finish

Sustainability starts long before a garment reaches the sewing line. We help you choose better materials, work with audited partners and keep the evidence behind every claim, so what goes on your label is backed by documents.

No blanket green claims. Each material or factory claim is checked against the supplier’s certificate, scope and validity for your product before it is confirmed.

  • Better materials

    Organic cotton, Better Cotton, recycled cotton and polyester, lyocell and jute, chosen to suit the product, price and performance you need.

  • Water & chemistry

    Dyeing and washing with mills that run effluent treatment plants, low-liquor-ratio machines and restricted-substance (RSL/MRSL) controls.

  • Energy & carbon

    We can prioritise partners investing in efficient machinery, rooftop solar and energy monitoring, and plan consolidated sea freight.

  • People & safety

    Associate factories audited under amfori BSCI, WRAP or Sedex, with building and fire safety monitored by the RSC in Bangladesh.

  • Waste & circularity

    Marker planning that reduces offcuts, segregated cutting waste for recycling, and durable construction so garments last longer.

  • Proof for every claim

    Certificates checked for scope and validity, transaction certificates for certified materials, and test reports shared with you.

    Cotton grows in the field

    Seeds are sown in spring. Five to six months later the bolls split open, revealing soft white fibre wrapped around the seeds.

    Sustainability lensOrganic farming avoids synthetic pesticides and fertilisers; rain-fed and regenerative programmes focus on water and soil health.

    Ask forGOTS or OCS organic cotton, Better Cotton or recycled-cotton blends.

  2. 02 / 08

    Harvested and ginned

    Seed cotton is picked and taken to a gin, where saws separate the fibre (lint) from the seeds. The lint is pressed into bales of roughly 170–230 kg.

    Sustainability lensNothing is wasted: cottonseed is crushed for oil and animal feed. Bangladesh imports most of its cotton, so a known origin is the first step to traceability.

    Ask forOrigin documents and transaction certificates for certified cotton.

  3. 03 / 08

    Spun into yarn

    At the spinning mill, fibres are opened, carded and combed, then drawn out and twisted into yarn. Combed Ne 30/1 is a common count for T-shirt jersey.

    Sustainability lensSpinning is energy-intensive, so efficient mills and renewable power matter. Recycled fibre is blended in at this stage.

    Ask forYarn certificates for organic content, or GRS / RCS for recycled blends.

  4. 04 / 08

    Knitted or woven into fabric

    Circular knitting machines loop yarn into single jersey, rib or piqué for T-shirts and polos. Looms interlace warp and weft for shirts, twill and denim.

    Sustainability lensConstruction and GSM decide how a garment wears and washes. A fabric that lasts longer is a sustainability choice too.

    Ask forFabric test reports for GSM, shrinkage and spirality before bulk.

  5. 05 / 08

    Dyed and finished

    Greige fabric is scoured, then dyed and finished — for example compacted or softened — to set its colour, hand feel and shrinkage.

    Sustainability lensWet processing uses the most water and chemicals. Low-liquor-ratio dyeing, water recycling and a working effluent treatment plant (ETP) make the biggest difference.

    Ask forOEKO-TEX STANDARD 100, ZDHC MRSL-conformant chemicals and ETP records.

  6. 06 / 08

    Cut to pattern

    Pattern pieces are graded across sizes and nested in a marker. Fabric is spread in layers and cut, so every front, back and sleeve matches.

    Sustainability lensTight marker planning reduces offcuts, and clean cutting waste can be collected and recycled into new yarn.

    Ask forMarker efficiency and a waste-segregation plan for your styles.

  7. 07 / 08

    Sewn by skilled operators

    Operators join the shoulders, attach the neck rib, set the sleeves, close the side seams and hem, using overlock, flatlock and lockstitch machines.

    Sustainability lensPeople are at the centre of garment making: safe buildings, fair wages and hours, and freedom of association matter as much as materials.

    Ask foramfori BSCI, WRAP or SMETA audits, and RSC safety monitoring.

  8. 08 / 08

    Inspected, packed and shipped

    Garments are checked, pressed, tagged and folded. A final AQL inspection — commonly 2.5 for major defects — is completed before cartons ship.

    Sustainability lensRecycled-content or plastic-free polybags, right-sized cartons and consolidated sea freight cut packaging and transport emissions.

    Ask forA final inspection report, packing list and recycled packaging options.

Every stage is a choice. Tell us which ones matter for your collection, and we will match mills and factories that can document them.

Recycling impact

Fashion, fibre and global warming

How much fashion adds to global warming, how recycled fibre compares with virgin, what each cotton label really changes, four ways to make polyester, and whether recycled polyester from bottles solves the problem. Every figure is sourced at the end of this section.

1 · The global picture

How much does fashion add to global warming?

The world emitted about 52 billion tonnes of CO₂e in 2023. Fashion, meaning everything from growing fibre to washing and discarding clothes and shoes, was estimated at 2.1 billion tonnes in 2018: about 4%, more than international flights and shipping combined. Depending on what is counted, estimates run from about 2% to about 8%.

The five largest sectors, and fashionbillion tonnes CO₂e a year
  1. Electricity and heatPower stations and heat plants17.033%
  2. TransportRoad, rail, domestic flights and shipping8.516%
  3. AgricultureLivestock, rice and fertilised soils6.212%
  4. Manufacturing and constructionFuel burned by industry, textile mills included6.212%
  5. Fugitive emissionsLeaks and venting from oil, gas and coal3.47%
  6. FashionApparel and footwear value chain, 20182.1≈4%
  7. International aviation and shippingFor comparison1.22%

Sectors: 2023 (Climate Watch). Fashion: 2018 (McKinsey & Global Fashion Agenda); other estimates range from about 1 billion tonnes for apparel alone (WRI, 2019) to about 8% for apparel and footwear (Quantis). Fashion is not an extra slice: its emissions are already counted inside electricity and heat, manufacturing, agriculture and transport.

Where fashion’s emissions happenshare of 2.1 billion t CO₂e, 2018
  • Material production38%
  • Yarn preparation8%
  • Fabric preparation6%
  • Wet processes15%
  • Cut, make and trim4%
  • Transport3%
  • Retail3%
  • Product use20%
  • End of use3%

Over 70% of fashion’s emissions happen before a garment leaves the factory, in fibre, yarn, fabric, dyeing and sewing, much of it in producing countries such as Bangladesh. That is where material, energy and process choices make the biggest difference.

2 · Virgin vs recycled

One tonne of fibre, made two ways

Recycling skips the most energy-hungry steps of virgin production. The skies show the idea: more CO₂ traps more heat. Choose a fibre to compare.

Virgin and recycled fibre side by side On the left, making fibre from virgin material releases more CO₂, which thickens a heat-trapping layer so outgoing heat is turned back to the ground. On the right, making it from recycled material releases less CO₂ and more heat escapes to space. Heat trapped Heat escapes VIRGIN RECYCLED CO₂CO₂CO₂CO₂CO₂CO₂CO₂CO₂ CO₂CO₂ Oil → PTA + MEG → PET → fibre4.06 t CO₂e per tonneBottles → flakes → fibre0.96 t CO₂e per tonne CO₂CO₂CO₂ CO₂CO₂CO₂CO₂ Farm → irrigate → harvest → gin1.96 t CO₂e per tonneSort by colour → shred → fibre0.38 t CO₂e per tonne

Recycled polyester vs virgin

Virgin polyester starts as crude oil and natural gas, refined into PTA and MEG and polymerised into PET. Mechanical recycling skips extraction and polymerisation: used bottles are sorted, washed, flaked, melted and spun straight into new fibre.

Climate impact t CO₂e per tonne of fibre−76%
Virgin 4.06
Recycled 0.96
Non-renewable energy GJ per tonne of fibre−86%
Virgin 95
Recycled 13

About 40% of virgin PET fibre’s non-renewable energy is the oil and gas built into the polymer itself. Across recycling routes and accounting methods the study found 40–85% energy and 25–75% climate savings; mechanical recycling, shown here, is the most common route for bottle-grade PET.

Shen, Worrell & Patel (2010), 1 tonne of staple fibre, cradle to factory gate.

Recycled cotton vs virgin

Virgin cotton needs land, irrigation water, fertiliser and field machinery before it is ginned. Mechanically recycled cotton skips the farm: cutting waste or used garments are sorted by colour and shredded back into fibre, and colour-sorted fibre can avoid re-dyeing.

Climate impact* t CO₂e per tonne of fibre−81%
Virgin 1.96
Recycled 0.38
Fossil energy GJ per tonne of fibre−62%
Virgin 15.0
Recycled 5.7
Water use m³ per tonne of fibre−77%
Virgin 2,740
Recycled 635

*Excludes carbon taken up by the cotton crop. Counted the reference study’s way, virgin fibre comes to 268 kg CO₂e, so the climate result depends on accounting; the water and energy savings hold either way. Recycled fibres are shorter and are usually blended: a 30% recycled-cotton fabric cut GHG by 2.2–8.6% per kg (Roy, Chu & Chopra, 2023).

Miljögiraff for H&M (2016), 1 tonne of fibre ready for spinning.

  1. Less energy

    Recycling skips oil extraction and polymerisation, or farming and irrigation, so less fuel is burned for each tonne of fibre.

  2. Lower CO₂e

    CO₂e adds every greenhouse gas into one unit. Less energy and no new feedstock mean fewer emissions per tonne.

  3. Less heat trapped

    Greenhouse gases trap heat that would otherwise escape to space. Warming tracks cumulative CO₂, so every tonne avoided counts for the long term.

  4. Waste becomes feedstock

    Bottles and cutting waste go back into fibre instead of landfill or burning, and need less new material from the ground.

3 · Cotton options

Conventional, Better Cotton, organic (GOTS) and recycled

These labels certify different things, and their climate results come from different studies. Compare each option with the baseline from its own study, not across studies.

Recycled cotton, Textile Exchange 2026

Global average Recycled0.44–1.14 Lowest

Better Cotton notes that its study used a different method from other cotton studies and cannot support product claims. GOTS cotton is certified organic fibre; GOTS also covers processing, which these farm-stage figures do not measure. Recycled cotton is measured up to spinnable fibre.

  • Conventional

    No farm standard. Synthetic nitrogen fertiliser and the energy used to pump irrigation water are the main sources of emissions.

    Climate
    From 1.29 kg CO₂e per kg (Türkiye) to 4.17 (India) in the 2026 study.
    Traceability
    Depends on the supplier.
  • Better Cotton (formerly BCI)

    A farm programme that trains growers to use fertiliser, water and pesticides more efficiently.

    Climate
    Its own study found 19% lower emissions per tonne of lint than comparable farms.
    Traceability
    Mostly mass balance: it supports farmers, but a garment may not contain Better Cotton, and Better Cotton says the study cannot support product claims.
  • Organic, GOTS-certified

    Certified organic fibre: non-GMO, no synthetic fertiliser or pesticides. GOTS adds rules on chemicals, wastewater and working conditions through processing.

    Climate
    Lower in India (−65%) and Türkiye (−26%), but higher in the US sample (+14%), where a nitrogen surplus and a smaller harvest raised the per-kg result. The study flags high uncertainty.
    Traceability
    Physical chain of custody with transaction certificates.
  • Recycled

    Cutting waste or used garments shredded back into fibre. The fibres are shorter, so they are usually blended.

    Climate
    0.44–1.14 kg CO₂e per kg. Shipping post-consumer waste abroad adds about 0.35 kg; recycling Bangladesh’s 330,000 t a year of cotton-rich waste locally avoids that.
    Traceability
    GRS or RCS with transaction certificates.

4 · Polyester routes

Four ways to make polyester

Results from one 2026 study of real producers, all at the same stage: one kilogram of PET chip or melt, before spinning. Electricity mix and waste transport change the numbers a lot, so read them as orders of magnitude, not a ranking.

Climate impact of polyesterkg CO₂e per kg of PET chip or melt
Virgin polyesterCrude oil and gas refined into PTA and MEG, then polymerised. 3.39–3.74 Southeast Asia
Bottle-to-fibreThermo-mechanical: used PET bottles sorted, washed, flaked and re-melted. 0.96–1.31 US, China, Southeast Asia
Textile-to-textile, thermo-mechanicalClean polyester offcuts shredded and re-melted. 1.07 only data point: 50/50 blend with bottle flake
Textile-to-textile, chemicalDepolymerised back to its building blocks, purified and re-polymerised. 1.77–2.24 commercial plants, China0.68–0.89 pre-commercial design, Europe

Spinning adds more: virgin staple fibre came to 3.96–4.93 kg CO₂e per kg, and one bottle-based staple fibre spun with coal-fired heat reached 3.04. Textile Exchange stresses that the study is non-comparative and should not be used for simple rankings or claims.

Tex2Tex® by Earth Protex: textile-to-textile recycled polyester

Tex2Tex® turns pre-consumer polyester cutting and yarn waste into recycled PET pellets, staple fibre, yarn and fabric with a Thermo-Mechanical Reactor™, without chemical solvents. Earth Protex makes it in Dalian, China, under GRS certification (Intertek), with a transaction certificate for each shipment.

Earth Protex compares the Intertek result with published data from about 2008 (Shen, Worrell & Patel 2010; plants in Western Europe and Taiwan). Intertek calculated the Tex2Tex® footprint, not the comparison. Against current data, virgin polyester staple fibre is 3.96–4.93 kg CO₂e per kg (Textile Exchange 2026), a similar gap of 84–87%. *Energy compares Tex2Tex®’s direct energy use with cradle-to-gate non-renewable energy, which also counts the oil and gas inside virgin PET. Water compares Tex2Tex®’s wastewater discharged with virgin PET’s total water consumption.

5 · The big question

Is recycled polyester from PET bottles solving the problem?

It helps, but it does not solve it. Bottle-based recycled polyester is a better choice than virgin polyester, yet it leaves fashion’s own waste untouched and is outgrown by virgin production.

What it does

  • Cuts the polymer’s footprint by about two-thirds: 0.96–1.31 kg CO₂e per kg of chip, against 3.39–3.74 for virgin.
  • Uses less fossil feedstock: no new oil and gas has to become PTA and MEG.
  • Keeps bottles out of landfill and incineration where bottle-to-bottle recycling is not available.

What it does not do

  • It does not recycle clothes. 98% of recycled polyester comes from bottles, and all textile-to-textile recycling, of every fibre, was 0.76% of fibre production in 2025.
  • It takes bottles out of a tighter loop. Bottles can become bottles again and again, and EU law requires PET bottles to contain 25% recycled plastic from 2025, and all drink bottles 30% from 2030. Once spun into clothing, the PET is rarely recycled again.
  • It is outgrown by virgin polyester. From 2022 to 2025 polyester output rose from 63 to 82.5 million tonnes, while recycled polyester rose only from 8.6 to 9.7, and its share slipped from 13.6% to about 12%.
  • The saving shrinks after the chip. Spinning, dyeing and finishing are unchanged; a coal-heated spinning line took one bottle-based fibre to 3.04 kg CO₂e per kg; and the garment still sheds microfibres when washed.
Virgin growth outpaces recyclingmillion tonnes of polyester a year
2022Virgin 54.48.663.0
2025Virgin 72.89.782.5

Virgin Recycled · From 2022 to 2025, virgin polyester grew by 18.4 million tonnes and recycled by 1.1.

Two futures for one bottlewhy bottle-to-fibre is a one-way trip
Bottle to bottle Can loop again and again Bottle to shirt Usually one more use, then landfill or burning

What actually moves the needle

  1. Textile-to-textile recycling, starting with clean post-industrial waste such as Bangladesh’s cutting waste. Tex2Tex® is one commercial example.
  2. Renewable electricity in spinning, recycling and dyeing mills, the biggest driver of results in every route studied.
  3. Fewer, longer-lasting garments, made from single fibres with removable trims so they can be recycled.
  4. When polyester is needed, GRS-certified recycled content, and textile-based recycled content where available.

Estimate your order

Fibre: Recycled polyester, using the per-tonne figures in section 2. Change the fibre there.

0.90 trecycled fibre
–CO₂e avoided
–energy saved
–water saved
–driven by an average car, in CO₂

Fibre stage only: spinning, fabric, dyeing and sewing are unchanged. Fibre bought is heavier than the finished garments because of spinning and cutting losses, so these estimates are conservative. Car equivalent uses about 249 g CO₂ per km (US EPA).

Our catalogue includes knit and woven clothing, T-shirts, polos, denim and non-denim bottoms, sweaters, jackets, kidswear, accessories, leather and jute products, and fabrics and yarns. Explore the product groups or send your requirements.

What should I include in a sourcing enquiry?

Share the product type, tech pack or reference, fabric composition and weight, quantity per style and colour, size range, target price, delivery destination and required delivery date. You can start with an idea if the specifications are still being developed.

How are minimum quantities and lead times agreed?

Minimum quantities and delivery timing depend on the product, material availability, construction and finishing requirements. Send your brief so we can discuss suitable options and confirm quantities and timing for your project.

Can Textillery coordinate quality inspections?

Our local team follows production and coordinates fabric and garment inspections, including final quality checks before shipment. Agree the inspection scope and acceptance criteria with us for your order.

What specifications are shown for each product?

Every catalogue item has an indicative specification covering styling and fit, fabrication, composition, weight (GSM), construction, trims and branding, sustainability options, performance finishes, sizing, packing and typical testing. These are typical ranges for discussion; the final specification is agreed at sampling.

Can I estimate the cost of a garment myself?

Yes. Each product has a Do your own costing button that opens a costing worksheet with standard data for that product. Work out fabric consumption from key measurements, a marker or a weighed sample; build up knit fabric prices from yarn count, knitting, dyeing and process loss; add cutting wastage, excess cut, trims, making cost, LC finance, overheads and margin; and see the FOB price and the landed cost with duty for your market. Fabric products are quoted per kg, yard and metre. Every value can be edited, and you can send the costing to us. Final prices are confirmed in a written quotation.

Which sustainable material options can be discussed?

Depending on the product, options can include organic cotton, Better Cotton (formerly BCI), recycled cotton, recycled polyester, Tencel or lyocell blends, jute, low-impact dyeing and washing, and recycled or plastic-free packaging. Each claim should be backed by the relevant certificate and supplier scope before it is used on a label.

How much do recycled polyester and recycled cotton reduce emissions?

Per tonne of fibre, a peer-reviewed study found mechanically recycled polyester produced 0.96 t CO₂e against 4.06 t for virgin polyester, about 76% less, and used 86% less non-renewable energy (Shen, Worrell and Patel, 2010). A life-cycle assessment for H&M found recycled cotton fibre used about 77% less water and 62% less fossil energy than virgin cotton, with lower emissions when carbon taken up by the crop is excluded (Miljögiraff, 2016). In a finished garment the saving scales with the recycled share, so a blend saves proportionally less.

Does recycled polyester from plastic bottles solve fashion’s climate problem?

It helps, but it does not solve it. A 2026 Textile Exchange study found bottle-based recycled PET at 0.96–1.31 kg CO₂e per kg of chip, against 3.39–3.74 for virgin PET. But 98% of recycled polyester comes from bottles rather than old clothes, textile-to-textile recycling is under 1% of fibre production, polyester garments are rarely recycled again, and virgin polyester output is growing far faster than recycled. Textile-to-textile recycling, renewable energy in mills and longer-lasting garments are needed as well.

Can you trace where the cotton in my garments comes from?

For certified materials, traceability follows the chain of custody: transaction certificates link the fibre, yarn, fabric and garment stages. For conventional cotton, origin documents can be requested from the spinning mill. Tell us how much traceability your buyer requires so we can choose suitable mills.

Do you develop children's products and what safety checks apply?

Yes. Kidswear is developed around age ranges, fit and trim safety. Typical checks include small-part and drawcord rules, azo-free dyes, restricted-substance limits and needle detection. The tests required depend on the destination market and are agreed in the brief.

Can you work from a sketch, photo or sample?

Yes. Send a sketch, reference photo, existing garment or tech pack with the fabric, quantity and target market. The team develops patterns and samples, then confirms measurements, materials and finish before bulk production.

Can Textillery source fabrics, yarn, bags and handicrafts as well as garments?

Yes. Alongside clothing, the catalogue covers fabric ranges and structures such as jersey, rib, terry, piqu\u00e9, fleece, twill, poplin and denim, plus jute bags, woven baskets, mats and wood-effect home products. Share the material, size and finish you need.

How should I request a particular certification?

Tell us which material or factory certification your buyer requires. The relevant certificate, scope and validity should be checked for the selected supplier and product before an order is confirmed.
