This approach aims to address the complexity of the fashion industry more effectively than a one-size-fits-all system, offering a calibrated approach to incentivise sustainable practices.<\/p>\n<p>Supported by the UK Fashion and Textile Association (UKFT), British Fashion Council (BFC), the British Retail Consortium and several luxury, fashion and retail brands, the white paper outlines how a fee could be implemented to drive sustainability practices within the UK fashion and textiles industry. By tailoring fees to specific product attributes, the system can encourage innovation in design and materials, potentially transforming the industry&#8217;s approach to sustainability.<\/p>\n<p>The white paper outlines the EPR Sandbox Project, which demonstrates how a variable fee structure could be applied to clothing within the UK market. This approach allows for a more equitable distribution of responsibility based on actual environmental impact, rewarding companies that invest in sustainable practices. The study tested different speculative fee structures, including per-item, per-kilogram, and fees based on circular attributes. It also modelled scenarios where organisations could receive income from taking circular actions, such as being paid a cash value for each garment they repair or resell. This flexibility can adapt to new materials and technologies, ensuring that innovative, more sustainable products are fairly assessed. Data from over 500,000 different garment types, representing hundreds of millions of individual items, was examined, with more than 85 per cent of the data producing reliable results.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/resource.co\/article\/uk-fashion-industry-pioneers-innovative-approach-textiles-epr\">Resource<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/2-599\/\">UK fashion industry pioneers innovative approach for a textiles EPR<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[575,4804,16072,579],"class_list":["post-133987","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-epr","tag-fashion-industry","tag-uk"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/133987","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=133987"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/133987\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=133987"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=133987"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=133987"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
