This book provides a wide landscape for recycling and product lifetime management in the textile and fashion sector. Through this approach, the book attempts to deepen the understanding of the sustainability transformation, which is currently desperately needed but also already happening in the design, manufacture, consumption and recycling of textiles and garments. The textile and garment recycling and redefining product lifetimes of this transformation are at the core of the new understanding of sustainability. An accessible and compelling read, Recycling and Lifetime Management in the Textile and Fashion Sector will appeal to students, scholars, professionals, policy makers and industry practitioners.
