The UN Brundtland Commission established in 1980s by the UN General Assembly defined sustainability as;
âThe development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.â
The essence of sustainability stems from the need for products and services that are environmentally-friendly, consume less energy, use less water and nonrenewable natural resources, cause no air or water pollution, and provide better life for humans today and into the future. It is unfortunate that most international reports on sustainability consider the textile and garment industry as one of the leading industries with respect to sustainability violation.
Few reports provided data evidence on the impact of the industry, but numerous reports and internet blogs were published only for the purpose of stirring human-right advocates and radical environmentalists against the industry.
One may argue that engineers and technologists who have been heavily involved in numerous industrial developments in the 20th century should have realized ecological impacts of their designs and prevent them. This is a valid argument since the focus of traditional engineering design has been primarily on the functional characteristics of products.
DNY Innova Textile Consulting Services Company is taking a leadership role in implementing âIntegrated Sustainabilityâ approaches in the textile industry. It is not enough that you are using sustainable fiber, it is a must that sustainability be implemented through the entire âlifecycleâ of product from the raw material to the end-use and finally to the reutilization of used products.
DNY understands and implement lifecycle analysis and âcircularityâ approaches.
Textile Sustainability Models
DNY sustainability tasks are based on the famous IPAT Equation.
These tasks start with a general model in which the environmental impact (I) is divided into three major aspects:
- The P-Factor = Society
- The A-Factor = Economy
- The T-Factor = Technology
DNY performs a series of analysis including carbon footprint, water footprint, EF-Consumption, Biocapacity, and lifecycle analysis to evaluate companiesâ sustainability status.
