Based on textile waste, the textile industry is growing at an enormously high pace due to increasing demands for textile products. Consequently, post-consumer textile wastes are heaping up to a troublesome extent. The disposition of these products often leads to the generation of environmentally hazardous pollutants; for instance, the decomposition of textile waste produces leachate, a potential water pollutant. The eco-unfriendly attributes of current post-consumer textile waste treatment practices necessitate searching for alternative means to manage textile waste.
Asia Pacific is the fastest growing market amongst other regions in the textile recycling market during forecast period, in terms of value. The rising demand from the aging population, increasing government initiatives, growing population, and changing lifestyle are increasing the demand of textile recycling in this region.
