Interloop Limited is pleased to become a certified member of the Textile Exchange – a non-profit organization, which brings together the leading brands, retailers, suppliers and other key stakeholders to learn about the social and environmental benefits of eco-friendly textiles .We intend to join hands with more than 400 members of Textile Exchange to help advance their mission of creating leaders in the sustainable fibers and materials industry. Their new Climate+ Strategy has ambitious goals for a 45% reduction in CO2 emissions from textile fiber and material production by 2030.
We can only bring such change if we work in collaboration and utilize the right tools to make these improvements. This is in alignment with the representation of Textile Exchange at a global scale – providing benchmarks for the industry and sharing the tools for success.
The Textile Exchange is also tackling the current production issues within the global textile industry. One of the critical issues include water & air emissions caused by toxic materials & energy use at production facilities and its impact on the climate change. Change is imperative to the textile industry, given the massive and unsustainable economic, environmental and social costs of current methodologies of production. This is all the more significant as global clothing demand will rise radically with population expected to reach an estimated number of 9 billion by 2050.
