Abstract :
Products that meet today’s high technological and performance criteria, as well as being of excellent quality and
durability, are in high demand. In the textile industry, synthetic material is the only way to get these. Yet, it has a
drawback in terms of maintaining the environment. Since using a lot of synthetic materials could result in a lot of rubbish,
which will accumulate on land and in the sea in various forms. Because it produces greenhouse gases, waste buildup poses
a severe threat to the environment. But we cannot ignore how synthetic materials are used in our daily lives. The synthetic
fibres that cause the most environmental contamination are nylon and polyethylene terephthalate. This section describes
their development from their original, virgin form to the end usage of recycled material
Aspects of sustainable fashion and textile production by fashion corporations that will be explored in this chapter
include the use of eco-friendly and biodegradable materials, environmentally friendly manufacturing techniques, green
supply chains, distribution, and retailing, as well as ethical consumers. This chapter explores a variety of environmentally
friendly, biodegradable materials that are employed by fashion companies. Also, the use of materials recycled from both
natural and man-made wastes is discussed. Global fashion companies use sustainable technologies (such as enzyme
processing, natural dyeing, laser technology, and plasma technology) to create sustainable clothes and textiles; these
technologies are also described in this chapter. This chapter also offers the perspectives on materials and technologies for
sustainability offered by three major global fashion businesses.
