Abstract

Sustainable fibers are at the forefront of a global shift towards more environmentally conscious and responsible practices within the textile and fashion industries. These fibers are sourced and produced with the goal of minimizing their ecological impact, conserving resources, and promoting ethical labor practices. Sustainable fibres are generally examined in three categories; Natural fibers with high biodegradability, regenerated fibers such as Tencel and Modal and finally recyled fibers such as recycled pet and recycled poliamid which are derived from post-consumer waste reducing the need for virgin materials. This study has been conducted in order to give a brief summarization about the latest sustainable textile fibres and their advantages with the manner of sustainable textile production. Some textile companies that has just newly developed their branded sustainable fibre were also mentioned within the study to give special examples.
