When the wind blows, spring is never too late. From March 28th to 30th, as an important institution that guides and promotes the sustainable development of the industry, the Social Responsibility Office of the ChinaTextile Industry Federation (hereinafter referred to as “China Textile Federation” Social Responsibility Office”) continued to open a sustainable innovation area with the theme of “sustainable innovation” at the China International Textile Fabrics and Accessories (Spring and Summer) Expo (hereinafter referred to as “intertextile Spring and Summer Fabric Accessories Expo”). The greenery continues to bloom.
This time, the sustainable innovation zone exhibition area broke the convention and changed the pattern of “concave shape” to create a tree with unique shape and great “content”. The color of the tree is selected from the four main topics on environmental issues that China Textile Federation is responsible for: chemical management innovation, water management innovation, fashion recycling innovation, and fashion climate innovation, adding a bit of color to the sustainable innovation area. . This can not only attract a large number of viewers to stop and capture a different kind of green spring day, but also “implant” the concept of green sustainable development into people’s hearts, allowing them to perceive its external tension and internal character.
By scanning the QR code on the “tree” and on the background board in the exhibition area, the audience can step by step follow Peacebird, Evely, Handa, Miss Sixty, Jiumuwang, Semir, Shengtai, Siliya, Aimu, Mercury Home Textiles, Weiqiao Typical cases of “Life cycle assessment (LCA’)” in China’s textile and apparel industry for 13 industry-leading brands, including Textile, Xinsheng Printing and Dyeing, and Ningxia Xinao.
It is understood that the core of LCA is the study of environmental factors and their potential impacts throughout the “full life cycle” of a product (from the acquisition of raw materials, production, use to final disposal).
Different from the main color of green in the past, the main visual and display racks of this sustainable exhibition area bring brighter red and blue. By referring to the red and blue stripes of China’s atmospheric temperature change map, eye-catching and lively colors are selected to harmonize , symbolizing the integration and collision of human carbon reduction and industrial development; using the shape of water ripples, which means “the best is like water, water benefits all things without dispute”, reflecting the contribution of the Social Responsibility Office in promoting the sustainable development of the industry; water is invisible It is colorless and nourishes all things, which explains that the transformation of sustainable development will gradually penetrate the entire industry chain. At the same time, the display racks also use three colors of red, white and blue to represent the garment exhibition area, bedding exhibition area and raw material exhibition area respectively.This makes the composition of the entire picture more balanced and the colors richer.
At the same time, in the sustainable innovation exhibition area, these leading brands also concretely presented a rich range of products from fibers, yarns, fabrics to the end-life carbon footprint, highlighting their breakthroughs and progress in the field of sustainable development, and also presenting to the industry It conveys the concept of sustainable development to relevant people and audiences, guides the low-carbon transformation of production and consumption patterns, and makes the most cutting-edge green concepts and green technologies in the textile and apparel industry within reach.
