Bio-end-of-life of textiles
This presentation will address the technical differences between home and industrial composting and how they impact the rate and extent of (bio)degradation of textile products and materials. Similarly, also degradation in soil and fresh and marine water will be discussed, focusing both on the parameters affecting the textiles’ (bio)degradation rate, as well as on intentional vs. unintentional disposal. For each bio-end-of-life option both the basics as well as some common misunderstandings will be addressed. Finally, also an update will be given on the current standardization and legislation landscape, with, obviously, a specific focus on textiles, after which also the opportunities and challenges for fabrics will be tackled.
