Towards an Eu Strategy for Fair and Sustainable Textiles
ecdpm’s Making policies work DISCUSSION PAPER No. 264 Sewing the pieces together: towards an eu strategy for fair and sustainable textiles By Nadia Ashraf and Jeske van Seters December 2019 Workers’ rights violations in the textiles industry have received more attention since the catastrophic fall of the Rana Plaza in Bangladesh. More recently, there is also growing recognition of the serious environmental impacts associated with textile value chains. The EU has put in place policies to address these sustainability challenges, but these policies are limited, scattered, and varying in relevance to textile value chains. This report presents insights for an integrated EU strategy in support of sustainable textile supply chains, and it can inform specific policy processes. The report assesses various policy measures, and explores how the EU can enhance synergies between different policy areas. This for instance includes an analysis of EU-wide human rights and environmental due diligence legislation, policy measures related to market access to the EU, an ecodesign-style approach for textiles, and an EU- level multi-stakeholder initiative for sustainable textiles. Stepping up EU efforts to contribute to sustainable textiles is timely and can be part and parcel of the European Green Deal. More broadly, it can support the EU’s contribution to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030, in particular Goal 12 of ensuring sustainable consumption and production patterns.

EURATEX Sponsor Package
8-9 NOVEMBER 2021 9TH EUROPEAN TEXTILE & APPAREL CONVENTION About EURATEX The EU textile and clothing industry, with around 160,000 companies employing 1.5 million workers, is an essential pillar of the local economy across many EU regions. With over € 61 billion of exports, the industry is a global player successfully commercializing high added value products on growing markets around the world. As its voice, EURATEX works to achieve a favourable environment within the European Union for the design, development, manufacture and marketing of textile and clothing products. Working together with the EU institutions and other European and international stakeholders, EURATEX focuses on clear priorities: an ambitious industrial policy, effective research, innovation and skills development, free and fair trade, and sustainable supply chains. EURATEX: Convention Theme 2021 “A new Paradigm for the European Textiles and Clothing Industry” The European T&C industry is facing 2 disruptive challenges: • COVID19 pandemic, which has an immediate impact on consumer demand and companies’ profitability, but which has also disrupted global supply chains. • European Union, which launched a “green and digital transition”, leading to an impressive set of new regulations, strategies and programmes, including a dedicated EU Textiles Strategy. Both elements have a fundamental impact on our industry, putting our companies at a crossroad. The Antwerp convention will focus on these 2 challenges and suggest strategies how to respond to them successfully. Antwerp, the Convention’s venue, an ancient ánd modern fashion capital As home of the ‘Antwerp Six’ designers (Dirk Bikkembergs, Ann Demeulemeester, Walter van Beirendonck, Dries van Noten, Dirk van Saene, Marina Yee), Antwerp has earned a global reputation as major fashion town.

CBI MARKET SURVEY: THE OUTERWEAR MARKET IN SLOVAKIA CBI MARKET SURVEY THE OUTERWEAR MARKET IN SLOVAKIA Publication date: April 2006 Introduction This CBI market survey gives exporters in developing countries information on some main developments on the outerwear market in Slovakia. The information is complementary to the information provided in the CBI market survey ‘The outerwear market in the EU’ which covers the EU in general. That survey also contains an overview and explanation of the selected products dealt with, some general remarks on the statistics used as well as information on other available documents for this sector. It can be downloaded from http://www.cbi.nl/marketinfo. 1. Market description: consumption and production Consumption • Consumer spending on clothing in Slovakia amounted to € 703 million in 2005, an increase of 17.5% during the period 2002-2005. 88% of spending on clothing concerned outerwear. Slovakia ranked 19th in EU outerwear consumption and accounted for 0.3% of total EU consumption. • The growth of the economy is supported by stabilisation of real wages growth and thus household consumption as well. A further growth on clothing expenditure of about 6.5% is expected for the coming years. • The population size in the Slovak Republic grew from 5,379 thousand in 2000 to 5,385 thousand in 2005. Much of the minimal growth stems from immigration rather than natural increase. Like other EU countries the Slovak Republic also has an ageing population. The younger age group is in decline: 19.8% of the population was younger than 15 years in 2000 against 17.6% in 2005.
