JIAXING NEW FASHION TRADING CO.,LTD
Developing NEW ideas, Making FASHION clothes !
Promoting sustainable fashion has become imperative today as the fashion industry's environmental and social impact continues to grow. Here, NEW FASHION's sustainable fashion meeting emphasizes the need to promote sustainable fashion by analyzing the environmental impact, consumer awareness and demand, and the importance of a circular economy and innovation within the fashion industry.
?
Environmental Impact:
According to the United Nations Environment Programme, it is estimated that the fashion industry accounts for 10% of global carbon emissions, more than international flights and maritime shipping combined. Furthermore, the industry is responsible for immense water consumption, with around 79 billion cubic meters of water used annually. By promoting sustainable fashion, we can mitigate these impacts through the adoption of eco-friendly materials, such as organic cotton and recycled fibers, and implementing sustainable production practices.

Consumer Awareness and Demand:
Consumer awareness and demand are pivotal in driving the shift towards sustainable fashion. A study conducted by Nielsen found that 73% of global millennials are willing to pay more for sustainable products. This demonstrates the growing consumer interest in environmentally and socially responsible fashion choices. Brands can leverage this demand by providing transparent information about their sustainable practices, certifications, and supply chain traceability.
?
Circular Economy and Innovation:
Promoting a circular economy within the fashion industry is integral to achieving sustainability goals. Currently, less than 1% of clothing is recycled into new garments. However, the industry can significantly reduce textile waste by embracing innovative recycling technologies, such as chemical and mechanical recycling. Data shows that recycling one ton of textiles can save approximately 20 tons of carbon emissions. Furthermore, embracing innovative design techniques, such as modular and upcycled fashion, promotes longevity and reduces the need for new production. The data-driven analysis underscores the potential of a circular economy to transform the fashion industry's sustainability landscape.

Whether it is a manufacturer, distributor or customer, we are all called to be a pioneer in the development of sustainable fashion, not only because environmental issues are imminent, but everyone's efforts may become a key figure in sustainable development!
