Quanzhou'S Textile And Apparel Opens A "Low-Carbon Tour"

Fabric

"

After the Canton Fair and Keqiao International

This is an example of R & D and production of low carbon products by Quanzhou textile and garment enterprises.

Since the beginning of this year, besides the environmental protection technological pformation of the fabric industry, the textile industry has developed the bamboo fiber research fever, and the clothing industry has implemented the concept of low carbon.

Faced with the "low carbon" test, Quanzhou textile and garment enterprises moved up.

From Haitian, Feng Zhu, Xin Hua and other textile enterprises to Federation Sanhe, Tai Lung, Yong Gu and other fabric enterprises, and then to seven wolves, left bank, nine Mu Wang and other finished garments, have increased the research and development efforts of low carbon products.

The upstream and downstream of Quanzhou's textile and garment industry chain is practicing the concept of environmental protection and interpreting low-carbon life.

Textile: developing environmentally friendly raw materials

"For bamboo fiber R & D use, we are improving trial production.

The current process is still using physical mechanical degumming, which requires the use of chemical substances, not only will destroy natural ingredients, or will produce some pollution.

In the next stage, we plan to negotiate with technical institutes to try out biological degumming methods, using enzymes and bacteria to degum and minimize the use of chemical additives.

"Bamboo fiber project" is the key R & D project of Fujian Xin Hua Limited by Share Ltd this year. Ceng Pengcheng, senior consultant assistant of the technology research and development center of the company, said that the product will serve as the main product of the company to develop the clothing market.

In the market environment of low carbon concept, reducing the use of petrochemical raw materials and chemical fibers, and actively developing and using bamboo fiber, hemp fiber and other biological raw materials have become a trend in the textile industry of Quanzhou.

Tai Lung cloth is currently developing a renewable recyclable fabric.

According to Liu Zhishun, deputy general manager of the company, the product is characterized by polyethylene, which can extract raw materials after high temperature melting.

Moreover, the finished products can be recycled again, and then melt at high temperature to form raw materials and recycle several times.

Wen Xing has also worked with the US DuPont Co this year to develop new biological fibers to replace high-energy consumption and high emissions of chemical fiber raw materials.

Haitian textile, Phoenix Bamboo textile and many other group companies have also made great strides in the research and development of biological raw materials, from upstream products to develop "low carbon economy".

Fabric: innovative dyeing and finishing process

All European import production lines, 22 sets of new garment dyeing systems, low bath ratio (bath ratio: textile dyeing and finishing, dyeing or dyeing and dyeing at the time when the ratio of dyestuff and dyestuff to dyestuff) is highly automated. The advanced automation equipment makes the Federation Sanhe worthy of the title of "national garment dyed product opening base" and is also the largest high-end garment dyeing factory in Asia.

The bath ratio of the ordinary garment dyeing is 1: 15~1: 20, and the bath ratio of these advanced equipment is 1: 4~1: 5, the bath ratio is reduced, and the energy loss in the production process will be reduced a lot.

All the process parameters of these devices can be set up in the computer, which is more advanced than manual control, and can avoid the loss of color difference caused by batch dyeing.

In addition, since last year we used the cold dyeing process to successfully dye it without heating or low-temperature heating, and also greatly reduced the amount of coal burning.

According to preliminary estimates, after the 22 sets of equipment are put into use, we save about 30 thousand tons of water in a year, save about 6000 tons of coal, and reduce the energy operation cost by 590 thousand yuan.

Federal Sanhe vice general manager Wang Ronghua introduced.

Wing Gu group, Jinli and other companies also made technical improvements to the finishing process this year.

Fabric finishing is one of the main businesses of the company. This year, the company introduced the production line of surface coating (special surface treatment) from Taiwan, and hired a senior technical engineer to start the technical reform of dyeing and finishing.

Dyeing and finishing is a serious pollution link in the whole industrial chain. I think the environmental protection of textile and clothing should start with the technical pformation of dyeing and finishing.

The new production line can reduce the use of chemical additives, and make the product quality more stable and reduce wastage.

Mr. Shi, head of Evergreen Group, said.

Clothing: advocating low carbon life

In addition to the active action of the upstream textile and fabric enterprises, the response of many clothing brands has also promoted the development of the low carbon economy.

Many foreign buyers such as H&M and Adidas have incorporated environmental indicators into supplier selection indicators.

In Quanzhou, the brand clothing companies such as the seven wolves, left bank, nine herd king, tiger capital, Qipai and Sheng Tian fox are more inclined to environmentally-friendly and low energy consumption fabrics when choosing textile fabrics, and advocate low carbon life to consumers in brand promotion.

It is understood that the left bank dress that has always advocated environmental protection will launch a series of autumn low carbon garments in the second half of the year.

In this series of clothing, the left bank will calculate the "carbon emissions" of each garment.

"Carbon emissions will be tabled on clothing, so that consumers will know how much impact their products consume on the environment."

Hong Jinshan, the chief designer of the left bank, said that in his design philosophy, consumers should be encouraged to pay for their own carbon emissions through products, so as to "raise a low carbon lifestyle to the young generation of China," and at the same time pass on and advocate a healthier attitude towards life and social responsibility.

Many brands of clothing responsible for each person said that the responsibility for advocating low-carbon life is the responsibility of brand enterprises.

Zhou Zhongqiang, director of the Department of leisure and clothing department of Saint Tian Hu, believes that a certain buffer period is needed to truly promote the low-carbon economy in the whole society.

Nevertheless, he said that the low-carbon economy will become a trend. As a coastal province, Fujian will play a role as a weathervane. As a gathering place of many brands, Quanzhou should respond positively as soon as possible.

Terminology explanation

The so-called low carbon economy means that under the guidance of the concept of sustainable development, through technological innovation, system innovation, industrial pformation, new energy development and other ways, we can minimize the consumption of high carbon energy such as coal and oil, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and achieve a win-win economic and social development and ecological environmental protection.

To develop low-carbon economy, on the one hand, we should actively undertake the responsibility of environmental protection and fulfill the requirements of national energy conservation and consumption reduction targets; on the other hand, we should readjust the economic structure, improve the efficiency of energy utilization, develop new industries and build ecological civilization.

This is a realistic way to discard the past development mode of pollution control, first low end, high end, first extensive and intensive development. It is an inevitable choice to achieve win-win economic development and resource and environmental protection.

voice

"In the next 5~10 years, the domestic situation will make enterprises have to act.

Low carbon development needs long-term vision. Enterprises will not act now and will be forced to act in the future.

Textile and garment industry is now an important industry in the national low carbon development plan. Energy saving and emission reduction should be the mainstream, but there are still some limitations.

In the energy saving and emission reduction projects, enterprises lack the overall layout idea. After the completion of the project, there is a lack of diagnosis and improvement.

In addition, exports account for a high proportion in the textile and garment industry.

European and American countries now attach great importance to coke content, and the textile and garment industry wants to enter its market.

"One is to encourage the development and application of differential fibers, functional fibers, composite yarns and new fabrics, and encourage the production of high-grade cotton and a variety of fiber blended fabrics, new composite yarns and fabrics.

Two is in line with the ecological, environmental protection and comprehensive utilization of natural resources, special natural fiber yarn, fabric production.

Three, we should promote new, efficient and energy-saving cotton textile processing equipment, and implement technological pformation to increase the proportion of products with three products and none.

The four is to support the production of high-grade colored yarn, yarn dyed fabric and filament fabric.

Xu Wenying, vice president of China Textile Industry Association and President of China Cotton Textile Industry Association, believes that the revitalization of cotton textile industry has four main points, and these four aspects are also applicable to other textile industries.
