This includes monitoring of the collection and recycling part of post-consumer textile. It is important to describe the due diligence and applying standards in order to inform consumers properly on the social conditions of the total (circular) production of their garments with PCR content. From the perspective of level playing field there is an urgent need for dedicated and harmonized due diligence requirements. Please register to attend this session.
