根據 Stratistics MRC 的數據,全球紡織廢棄物管理市場預計在 2025 年將達到 115.8 億美元,到 2032 年將達到 230 億美元,預測期內的複合年成長率為 10.3%。
紡織廢棄物管理是一個統稱,指的是用於減少、回收和妥善處理家庭、時尚和紡織業排放的紡織廢棄物的方法和技術。由於快時尚的興起,紡織廢棄物已成為嚴重的環境問題,垃圾掩埋不堪負荷,污染日益嚴重。重複利用衣物、回收纖維、將舊布料升級改造成新產品以及推廣永續的生產方法都是有效的紡織廢棄物管理技術。此外,減少紡織廢棄物及其對環境的負面影響在很大程度上依賴於提高消費者意識和道德購買行為。
根據美國環保署(EPA)的數據,2018年美國產生了1,700萬噸紡織固態廢棄物,其中1,130萬噸(約佔66%)被掩埋,320萬噸(約佔19%)被焚燒,只有250萬噸(約佔14.7%)被回收。
時尚產業措施與循環經濟
紡織業正在擁抱循環經濟模式,以解決廢棄物、節約資源並減少對環境的影響。為了延長產品的生命週期,時尚品牌正在逐步引入循環經濟實踐,例如服裝租賃、轉售平台、維修服務和回收計劃。包括巴塔哥尼亞、Levi's 和 H&M 在內的許多公司都推出了服飾退貨政策,並承諾在其產品系列中增加再生材料的比例。此外,這些舉措不僅減少了對垃圾掩埋場的依賴,還透過建立以回收和再利用為重點的新價值鏈,提升了紡織廢棄物處理行業的長期成長潛力。
昂貴的先進回收技術
先進回收技術高昂的初始成本是紡織廢棄物管理的最大障礙之一。諸如解聚合的化學回收程序需要複雜的基礎設施、專用酵素和溶劑以及大量的能源,這使得它們比傳統的廢棄物處理技術更昂貴。此外,基於人工智慧的系統和近紅外線光譜等自動分類技術必須大規模部署,並由熟練的人員進行維護。這些高成本限制了它們在中小企業和中低收入國家的採用。
具有環保意識的消費者和循環時尚的發展
紡織廢棄物管理的最大機會之一是循環時尚的興起。消費者,尤其是年輕一代,日益增強的環保意識推動了企業對永續產品和道德商業行為的需求。因此,升級改造品牌、租賃服務和轉售平台日益普及。修補服務和服飾回收計劃日益被視為加值服務。此外,隨著消費者意識的增強,企業擁有寶貴的機會來建立閉合迴路供應鏈、利用可回收材料進行創新以及建造回收基礎設施。人們對循環型社會日益成長的偏好有助於提升品牌忠誠度,並創造新的收益來源,從而減少對環境的影響。
再生纖維需求波動
再生纖維的需求和成本,尤其是在經濟衰退和低油價時期,往往難以與更便宜的原生纖維替代品競爭,嚴重影響紡織廢棄物管理市場。例如,油價下跌使原生聚酯更具吸引力,並導致再生聚酯(rPET)市場萎縮。此外,部分地區纖維供應有限,且再生纖維性能不穩定,令製造商對品質感到擔憂。如果品牌無法依賴可靠、高品質的再生材料供應鏈,它們可能會轉向傳統材料。這些市場波動嚴重威脅紡織品回收基礎設施和創新的盈利以及長期投資。
新冠疫情對紡織廢棄物處理市場造成了多方面的影響,其中大部分是負面的。停工期間,全球供應鏈中斷,工廠關閉、消費者需求下降、商店關門,導致紡織品產量暴跌。因此,消費前紡織廢棄物(例如生產邊角料)的產量暫時下降。然而,由於網路購物增加、快時尚清倉以及口罩等一次性個人防護設備(PPE)需求的增加,消費後紡織廢料(其中大部分不可廢棄物)的數量增加。勞動力短缺和安全擔憂也導致廢棄物收集和回收活動放緩。
預計消費後廢棄物部分將在預測期內實現最大幅度成長
預計廢棄物部分將在預測期內佔據最大的市場佔有率。此類別包括顧客使用後排放的以織物為基礎的產品(家用紡織品、舊衣服等)。據艾倫·麥克阿瑟基金會稱,快時尚的興起、產品生命週期短以及消費者意識的提高導致了全球嚴重的紡織廢棄物問題,每年產生超過 9000 萬噸紡織廢棄物。回收計劃、二手市場和回收計劃引起了政府和行業相關人員的關注。此外,儘管存在污染和材料複雜性等障礙,消費後紡織廢棄物仍然是最大和最重要的部分,因為它的數量、環境影響以及在完成紡織品循環經濟循環中的關鍵作用。
預計零售業在預測期內將以最高複合年成長率成長
預計零售業將在預測期內呈現最高成長率。零售業(包括百貨公司、商店、線上市場和時尚品牌)預計將以最快的速度擴張。服飾回收計劃、循環經營模式(例如租賃和轉售)以及企業永續性計劃的日益普及是這一擴張的主要驅動力。全球延伸生產者責任 (EPR) 法規正在迫使零售商收集和回收消費後紡織品,而消費者對循環經濟日益成長的需求也為擁有強大再利用計劃的公司帶來了豐厚的回報。此外,零售商強大的物流網路、行銷管道以及與消費者的直接聯繫也推動了回收計劃的快速擴張。
由於廣泛採用永續實踐、先進的回收基礎設施以及嚴格的環境法規,預計歐洲將在預測期內佔據最大的市場佔有率。在歐盟永續和可回收紡織品策略以及強制要求紡織品收集和回收的生產者延伸責任法 (EPR) 等強力政策的推動下,該地區正在引領循環經濟的發展。此外,德國、法國和荷蘭等國家在紡織品分類和回收技術開發方面處於領先地位,這使得歐洲成為市場規模和系統效率方面最發達、最具主導地位的地區。
預計亞太地區將在預測期內實現最高的複合年成長率,這得益於日益增強的環保意識、紡織品產量的成長以及快速的都市化。孟加拉、越南、中國和印度等國家不僅是重要的紡織品生產國,也產生了大量的紡織廢棄物。為了解決該地區日益嚴重的廢棄物問題,各國政府正在製定更嚴格的環境法規,增加回收支出,並倡導循環經濟原則。此外,預計亞太地區將實現有組織的紡織廢棄物管理解決方案的最高成長,這得益於中產階級人口的成長、快時尚消費的增加以及國內外品牌採用永續性框架等因素。
According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Textile Waste Management Market is accounted for $11.58 billion in 2025 and is expected to reach $23.00 billion by 2032 growing at a CAGR of 10.3% during the forecast period. The methods and techniques used to minimize, recycle, and appropriately dispose of textile waste produced by homes and the fashion and textile industries are collectively referred to as textile waste management. Fast fashion has made textile waste a major environmental issue, causing landfills to overflow and pollution to rise. Reusing clothing, recycling fibers, upcycling old fabrics into new products, and encouraging sustainable production methods are all examples of effective textile waste management techniques. Additionally, reducing textile waste and its negative effects on the environment depends heavily on promoting consumer awareness and ethical buying practices.
According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in 2018 the United States generated 17 million tons of textile municipal solid waste. Of that, 11.3 million tons (≈ 66%) were landfilled, 3.2 million tons were incinerated (≈ 19%), and only 2.5 million tons (≈ 14.7%) were recycled.
Fashion industry initiatives and circular economy
A circular economy model is being adopted by the textile industry in an effort to address waste, conserve resources, and lessen its impact on the environment. In order to prolong product life cycles, fashion brands are progressively implementing circular practices such as clothing rental, resale platforms, repair services, and take-back programs. A number of businesses, such as Patagonia, Levi's, and H&M, have pledged to introduce clothing return policies and increase the amount of recycled materials in their collections. Moreover, these initiatives are increasing the textile waste management sector's potential for long-term growth by not only decreasing reliance on landfills but also establishing new value chains focused on recycling and reuse.
Expensive advanced recycling technologies
The high initial cost of sophisticated recycling technologies is one of the largest barriers to textile waste management. Chemical recycling procedures, such as depolymerization, are more costly than conventional disposal techniques because they require sophisticated infrastructure, specialized enzymes or solvents, and a large amount of energy. Furthermore, automated sorting technologies like AI-based systems and near-infrared spectroscopy need to be deployed on a large scale and maintained by skilled workers. Adoption is constrained by these high costs in small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) and low- and middle-income nations.
Growth of eco-conscious consumers and circular fashion
One of the biggest opportunities in textile waste management is the move toward circular fashion. Growing environmental consciousness among consumers, particularly among younger generations, has led to a demand for sustainable products and ethical business practices from companies. As a result, upcycling brands, rental services, and resale platforms have grown in popularity. Repair services and clothing return programs are becoming more and more seen as value-added services. Moreover, businesses have a rare opportunity to build closed-loop supply chains, innovate with recyclable materials, and build collection infrastructure as consumer awareness rises. This growing preference for circularity creates new revenue streams that support brand loyalty and lessen the impact on the environment.
Demand variability for recycled fibers
The demand and cost of recycled fibers, which frequently find it difficult to compete with less expensive virgin alternatives, particularly during recessions or times of low oil prices, have a significant impact on the textile waste management market. For instance, virgin polyester becomes more attractive, and the market for recycled polyester (rPET) contracts when oil prices fall. Additionally, manufacturers are concerned about quality due to limited availability in some areas and inconsistent performance in recycled fibers. Brands may switch back to traditional materials if they are unable to rely on reliable, high-quality supply chains for recycled inputs. The profitability and long-term investment in textile recycling infrastructure and innovation are seriously threatened by these market swings.
The market for textile waste management was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic in a variety of ways, but mostly negatively. Global supply chains were upset during lockdowns, and factory closures, decreased consumer demand, and store closures caused a dramatic drop in textile production. This led to a brief decrease in the production of pre-consumer textile waste, such as production scraps. However, post-consumer textile waste-a large portion of which was non-recyclable-rose as a result of the rise in online shopping, fast fashion clearances, and disposable personal protective equipment (PPE) like masks. Workforce limitations and safety concerns also caused waste collection and recycling activities to slow down.
The post-consumer waste segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
The post-consumer waste segment is expected to account for the largest market share during the forecast period. Home textiles, used clothing, and other fabric-based products that customers throw away after using them are included in this category. According to the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, the rise in fast fashion, short product lifecycles, and increased consumerism has led to a massive global textile waste problem, with over 90 million tonnes produced each year. With recycling programs, secondhand markets, and take-back programs, governments and industry stakeholders are paying more attention to this market. Moreover, post-consumer waste continues to be the largest and most important segment due to its volume, environmental impact, and crucial role in completing the textile circular economy loop, despite obstacles like contamination and material complexity.
The retailers segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
Over the forecast period, the retailers segment is predicted to witness the highest growth rate. The Retailers segment-which includes department stores, shops, online marketplaces, and fashion brands-is anticipated to expand at the fastest rate. The growing use of clothing return programs, circular business models (such as renting and reselling), and corporate sustainability initiatives are the main drivers of this expansion. Retailers are being forced by global Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) laws to gather and recycle post-consumer textiles, and consumers' increasing desire for circularity is rewarding companies with strong reuse programs. Additionally, fast collection program scaling is made possible by retailers' strong logistics networks, marketing channels, and direct consumer reach.
During the forecast period, the Europe region is expected to hold the largest market share, driven by its extensive adoption of sustainable practices, sophisticated recycling infrastructure, and strict environmental regulations. With the help of robust policies like the EU Strategy for Sustainable and Circular Textiles and Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) laws that require textile collection and recycling, the region is leading the way in circular economy initiatives. Furthermore, Europe is the most developed and dominant region in terms of market size and system efficiency because nations like Germany, France, and the Netherlands are at the forefront of developing textile sorting and recycling technologies.
Over the forecast period, the Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to exhibit the highest CAGR, driven by rising environmental consciousness, growing textile production, and fast urbanization. In addition to being significant textile producers, nations like Bangladesh, Vietnam, China, and India also produce a lot of textile waste. To combat the region's growing waste problems, governments are enacting stronger environmental laws, boosting recycling expenditures, and advocating for circular economy principles. Moreover, Asia-Pacific is the region with the fastest rate of growth for organized textile waste management solutions due to factors like growing middle-class populations, rising fast fashion consumption, and local and international brands implementing sustainability frameworks.
