MADRID – Leading fashion firms have united to launch the Association for Textile Waste Management in Spain.
Decathlon, H&M, Mango, Inditex, IKEA, Kiabi and Tendam are founding members of the association, which has been established in anticipation of looming circular legislation.
“With the constitution of this association, made official at the Museo del Traje, a state museum under the Ministry of Culture and Sports, the associated companies want to give a collective boost to textile recycling in Spain, advancing towards a circular model through the correct management of industry waste,” a statement from Mango said.
