Textile recycling is good for both, environmental and economic
benefits. It avoids many polluting and energy-intensive processes
that are used to make textiles from fresh materials.
The requirement of landfill space is reduced. Textiles lead to
many problems in a landfill. Synthetic fiber doesn’t decompose.
Woolen garments do decompose but also produce methane, which
contributes to global warming.Pressure on fresh resources too is
reduced. This leads to the balance of payments as we buy fewer
materials for our requirements.
