스포츠 토토, nylon, acrylic, three recyclables are possible! Material Recycling Project "TecRecyc"

Press ReleaseSustainability
Toyoshima & 스포츠 토토., Ltd. aims to propose comfortable lifestyles (President & CEO: Hanshichi Toyoshima, Nagoya City Naka-ku With the aim of reducing the burden on the environment by reducing CO2 emissions, we will start de handles three recyclable materials of polyester, nylon, and acrylic. Furthermore, by introducing materials for this project, we will contribute to carbon offset through donations to more trees.






The environmental impact of the fashion industry has become a major problem around the world. According to an announcement by the Ministry of the Environment, the environmental impact of everything from the procurement of raw to about 90,000 tons of CO2 emissions and about 8.3 billion m3 of water in one year. In addition, 508,000 tons of clothing are thrown away in the Japan every year. This is equivalent to 130 large

Furthermore, in 2021, the Textile Exchange and the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change's Fashion Industry Charter for Climate Action (UNFCCC) declared a challenge to accelerate the recycled 스포츠 토토 market through. share of recycled 스포츠 토토 to 45% by 2025*2.

In actual market conditions, for example, 스포츠 토토 is the most produced fiber in clothing, with a share of 54% in 2021, but the market share of recycled 스포츠 토토 fibers has increased slightly from 14.7% in 20.

In response to this situation in the fashion industry, we aim to reduce the environmental impact TOYOSHIMA is developing a project called "TecRecyc", a global recycled material. "TecRecyc" will take on the cha as reducing CO2 emissions, by reusing materials that have been discarded so far. By choosing TecRecyc, we will contribute to reducing pollution in rivers, destroying the environment and ecosystems due to rising temperatures, reducing carbon dioxide emissions, andwh planting and forest conservation activities. Even if it costs money and effort, we will steadily work on the recycling process and aim to contribute to the reduction of CO2 emissions throughout the supply chain of the fashion industry for the future earth, and we will report the

■ Three materials handled by "스포츠 토토"
Recycling of PET bottles has now become commonplace due to the growing awareness of environmental issues, but 스포츠 토토 is not the only problem of environmental pollution in the fashion industry. With the thought can used, and with that in mind, we repeated trial and error in the development of a wide range of recycled materials, and at this stage, we have realized three recycled materials: 스포츠 토토, nylon, and acrylic.

·스포츠 토토
TecRecyc handles recycled 스포츠 토토 using used PET bottles, as well as chemical recycling made by chemically decomposing and resynthesizing fabrics. Data shows that chemically recycled 스포츠 토토, which can bey throwing away leftover cloth or clothes, can reduce CO2 emissions in the pellet production process by about 60% compared to virgin 스포츠 토토.

·Nylon
Raw nylon is recycled from chips from scraps and fishing nets generated in the manufacturing process of products. Since the pellets are colored, the color development is good and there is no need to worry 스포츠 토토 color fading or it also contributes to the reduction of water pollution caused by the dyeing process.

·스포츠 토토
Since acrylic is often used in blends, it has long been considered one of the most difficult materials to recycle. 스포츠 토토 partners with a global acrylic manufacturer to handle recycled acrylic materials that reuse factory scrapss. garbage, contributes to reducing CO2 emissions.


■Reduction effect of changing 스포츠 토토 clothing to "TecRecyc"
If you change about 33 스포츠 토토 clothing to "TecRecyc" = CO2 emissions can be reduced by the same amount as 8.8 kg CO2 absorbed per year for one cedar.


*Reduction amount when 1 kg of 스포츠 토토 is changed to recycled material: 1.0755 kg CO2/kg.

*We assume that 스포츠 토토 clothing weighs an average of 250g.




In addition, if all of the 스포츠 토토 products produced by TOYOSHIMA were to be changed to TecRecyc, CO2 emissions equivalent to 2.5 million cedar trees (2,500 ha) could be reduced annually. This means the same way as creating a forest with an area equivalent to 520 Tokyo Domes.

*It is estimated that properly maintained cedar forests of 36~40 years old cedar store about 320 tons of CO2 (about 82 tons in carbon terms) per 1ha.
*In addition, it is estimated that 1ha of this 36~40-year-old cedar plantation absorbs about 8.8 tons of CO2 per year (about 2.4 tons when converted to carbon).
*Assuming that there are 1,000 standing trees in 1 ha of a 40-year-old cedar plantation.

* The numerical data described in "■ Three materials handled by "TecRecyc" and "■ Reduction effect when changing polyester clothing to "TecRecyc" was calculated by Carbon Free Consulting 스포츠 토토., Ltd. based on data provided by

 

■Donation to More Trees

By making donations to more trees through 스포츠 토토, you can contribute to carbon offsetting. For example, if you purchase one product with the "스포츠 토토" tag lowered, 10 yen will be donated to forest conservation organizations, wh 1,000g.

*Estimated based on the return to the forest of Higashishirakawa Village, Gifu Prefecture.
