"Carbon Footprint Tax" Came To &Nbsp; Are Textile And Garment Enterprises Ready?

Foshan textile and garment industry low carbon emission reduction technology line advanced seminar yesterday.

Present situation:

Low carbon economy is sweeping the globe in an irresistible trend.

Experts and enterprises attending the meeting believed that low carbon industries had great impact on China's textile industry, but there were also opportunities.

The local printing and dyeing enterprises such as Guangdong Yida and Sanshui Jia Lida, which have made remarkable progress in low carbon emissions and energy conservation and emission reduction, have shared the successful experience of saving water and electricity, upgrading dyeing and finishing equipment and improving technology to promote low carbon textile production.

"Through the implementation of energy saving and emission reduction, energy saving and environmental protection equipment, improving technology, reducing wastage, recycling, etc., Guangdong Yida Textile Co., Ltd. can reduce 600 tons of sulfur dioxide emissions annually, save water 80% to 600000 cubic meters, save 12000 tons of steam annually, and reduce power consumption by more than 70%."

Zhang Yugao, director of research and development at Yida company, said that it was successful.

And a few years ago, we invested in the construction of the first solar water heating project in China's printing and dyeing industry.

The person in charge of the enterprise believes that the Foshan area is rich in solar energy resources, and the most widely used textile industry, the use of solar energy as the production equipment of hot water, will contribute to the sustainable development of enterprises.

Change: "carbon footprint tax" came.

"The competition pattern of the world textile is changing, and the advantage of low labor cost will be further weakened in China. The right to speak, the competitiveness of manufacturers, the speed of brand, information and market reaction, the mastery of key technologies and technologies, and the development and application of new materials and new resources will play a decisive role."

Professor Xi, a professor at the Donghua University, points out that according to the current EU's "carbon footprint tax", the logo of the greenhouse gas emissions from textile and garment products to the whole life cycle of pportation, processing, production, consumption and home will be traced.

The corresponding new trade barriers are heavy taxes on textile and clothing products that exceed emissions.

"This will be a serious test for the textile and garment industry, and we must not take it lightly."

At present, the "carbon footprint tax" has been implemented in individual countries of the European Union. WAL-MART has also asked for the start of 2012, and the procurement products must identify carbon emissions. Xi Dali disclosed that at the macro level, a number of domestic experts are collecting and sorting out the basic data of the carbon emissions of China's textile and clothing industry, preparing for the formulation of China's carbon emission standard.

He stressed that textile export enterprises must also step up their response.

Suggestion: implement "green supply chain management".

Faced with low energy consumption,

Some experts have suggested that the low carbon way for textile enterprises is to implement "green supply chain management".

That is, from product design, procurement, manufacturing, assembly, packaging, pportation, use to recycling after disposal, every link should take full account of resources and environmental problems, so as to maximize the use of resources and reduce environmental pollution.

Xi Dan Li believes that the "carbon footprint tax" is put forward by developed countries through the formulation of leading energy conservation and environmental protection standards, setting up technical and standard barriers to ensure their superiority in developing countries in international competition.

He stressed that the reality is that "the rules are ordered by them, but they bring a series of problems that we must consider now.

In particular, enterprises that produce export products should change their ideas. "
