Sustainability in fashion and textiles : values, design, production and consumption

Miguel Ángel Gardetti (Editor), Ana Laura Torres (Editor)
There is no doubt that the textile industry - the production of clothing, fabrics, thread, fibre and related products - plays a significant part in the global economy. It also frequently operates with disregard to its environmental and social impacts. This book covers, among other issues: sustainability and business management in textile and fashion companies; value chain management; use of materials; sustainable production processes; fashion, needs and consumption; disposal; and innovation and design
