Приєднався 18 гру 2018
Our vision is to work towards zero impact from fibre fragmentation from textiles to the natural environment.
The work of TMC is to connect and translate deep academic research with the reality of commercial supply chain production. Our goal is to offer solutions to brands, retailers and manufacturers to transform textile production for the greater good of our ecosystems.
We deliver our vision through the Microfibre Roadmap in collaboration with the textiles sector through our collaborative cross industry agreement, The Microfibre 2030 Commitment.
The Microfibre 2030 Commitment presents the opportunity to align globally as an industry and have real impact on microfibre release, by bringing together brands, retailers, manufacturers, research, academic and industry experts. The cross-industry connection expedites understanding and reduces the possibility of duplication of research and resources.
