The textile industry is entering a period in which production capacity, cost and delivery time are no longer the only criteria determining competitiveness. For businesses exporting to Europe, information about materials, production processes, product durability and post-use treatment options is increasingly shaping relationships with customers. This change is being driven by the European Union’s policy

For many years, textile recycling in Vietnam was mainly viewed as a waste treatment activity or a corporate social responsibility initiative. That approach is changing. As international brands require suppliers to better control raw materials, chemicals, water, energy and product end-of-life, the ability to participate in a circular supply chain is gradually becoming a competitive

The European textile and garment market is shifting from an approach focused on production to one that manages the entire product life cycle. A garment is no longer assessed only by its price, seam quality, or delivery time. Design, material composition, repairability, durability, supply chain information, and end-of-life treatment are increasingly becoming part of market

For many years, recycling was often viewed as the final stage in the life cycle of a garment: clothing that was no longer being used would be collected, sorted, and then converted into raw materials for another product. However, this approach is gradually revealing its limitations. If a product is made from a blend of
