At present, sustainable development has become a global consensus. As an important part of the global manufacturing industry, the textile industry needs to adopt more environmentally friendly and sustainable production methods to reduce its environmental impact. Developing circular economy is an important way to achieve this goal. How to promote the modernization of the entire industrial system with high-quality development of the textile industry, and better serve the overall situation of the country and the happiness of the people is an urgent issue of our times.

On November 29, the 2023 Textile Circular Economy Summit Forum with the theme of "Opening a new journey, Insight into a new future" was held in Shanghai. At the meeting, relevant leaders and guests from the National Ministry Committee, China Textile Federation, NGO organizations, as well as industry experts and scholars, scientific research institutions, representatives of brand enterprises gathered together to analyze circular economy policies, share innovative practical experience, and explore new models of green, circular and low-carbon transformation in the textile industry, providing new ideas and directions for the sustainable development of the industry.

The conference was guided by China National Textile Industry Federation and hosted by China National Textile Industry Federation Environmental Protection and Resource Conservation Promotion Committee and Ellen MacArthur Foundation (UK) Beijing Representative Office.

The meeting was chaired by Cheng Hao, deputy director of the industry department of China Textile Industry Federation.

Build a modern textile industry system

Start with the development of circular economy

Duan Xiaoping, vice president of China Textile Industry Federation, said in his speech that at present, sustainable development has become the development goal of the whole industry. As an important part of sustainable development, the development of circular economy is a major measure to promote the strategic deployment of ecological civilization construction, accelerate the transformation of economic development mode, build a resource-saving and environment-friendly society, and achieve sustainable development. In this regard, China's textile industry is guided by the "double carbon" goal, orderly promote green low-carbon circular development, continue to promote industrial transformation and upgrading, green printing and dyeing and other clean production technology application results, waste fiber recycling scale has steadily increased, providing a strong support for the global textile industry to achieve sustainable development.

He pointed out that in order to actively explore the development path and accelerate the construction of a modern textile industrial system, the China Textile Federation has issued the "Action Outline for the Construction of a modern textile Industrial System (2022-2035)", which has given China's plan for the construction of a modern textile industrial system. In the future, China Textile Association will focus on promoting the circular development of the park, implementing the integrated development of the Internet and resource recycling, expanding the supply capacity of green fiber, improving the recycling system of waste textiles, and strengthening the green management of the whole life cycle of products to promote industrial green transformation.

Jos Bleriot, Executive Director of the Ellen MacArthur Foundation (UK) and head of international institutions and Government affairs, first expressed his gratitude for the friendly cooperation with China Textile Federation over the years in the form of a video address. He said that China is the world's largest textile and garment producer and exporter, and the EU ranks first in the world in terms of total garment imports, and the two sides play a crucial role in developing a circular economy. The circular economy model not only reduces the need for raw materials by extending product durability and retaining maximum value, but also includes a positive consideration of nature and climate at the beginning of the design of the production process, which is particularly important for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Today, the strength and ambition that China and the EU are demonstrating means that by working together, they can make a difference at the global level. It is believed that this dialogue will be successful and pragmatic and will inspire the birth of more industry solutions. He stressed that circular economy can help solve the triple crisis of environmental pollution, climate change and biodiversity loss, and the textile and garment industry will be a vivid practice in developing circular economy.
