Garment Enterprises Take The Lead In Developing "Low Carbon Economy"

　　就在不少行業仍將“低碳經濟”停留在規劃中的美好藍圖時，第十八屆中國國際服裝服飾博覽會上作為傳統產業的服裝行業卻已搶先一步，以低碳、環保等為主打概念的服裝廣受好評，業界人士甚至認為“低碳風”很有可能成為國內服裝業新的潮流趨勢。

The clothing on the left side of China's earlier research and production of environmental protection clothing has calculated the carbon emissions of products. "Taking a more than 200 gram pure cotton T-shirt as an example, the carbon dioxide emissions from the whole process of production, sale and use are about 7 kilograms, close to 30 times of self weight, and the carbon emissions of chemical fiber fabrics are even higher."

The industry appealed that carbon labels should be added to environmental protection clothing to mark carbon emissions.

China put forward last year that carbon dioxide emissions per unit GDP will drop by more than 40% in 2020. The clothing industry said that China, as the world's largest producer of clothing, is also a big consumer of clothing. The "low carbonization" of clothing should arouse the common attention of the government, enterprises and consumers.

Because of the high cost of research and production, the price of clothing such as organic cotton, colored cotton or hemp fiber usually costs tens of thousands of dollars, which makes consumers virtually equal in environmental protection clothing and expensive clothing.

"The high cost of environmental protection clothing can not be completely passed on to consumers, after all, most of the country.

Consumers consider more about style, quality and price.

He said that if manufacturers can bear part of the higher cost and narrow the gap between environmental protection clothing and ordinary clothing, it will surely attract more people to become the advocates of environmental protection clothing. "With technological innovation, the gradual application of recycled recycled fabrics and synthetic fabrics will further reduce the cost of environmental protection clothing."
