BRUSSELS - The European Manmade Fibres Association (CIRFS) has urged European Union (EU) institutions to accept a series of recent recommendations aimed at securing a sustainable textile industry in Europe amid the drive for net zero.
Writing in an open letter to the European Council, Commission and Parliament, Frédéric Van Houte, director general, CIRFS, said the European textile and man-made fibres industry “must be at the forefront of consideration” of the steps being taken to safeguard Europe’s industrial base.
