While the country has decided to adopt green development as an important engine to promote the sustainable economic development of China during the 13th Five-Year Plan period, it has comprehensively promoted green manufacturing, accelerated the transformation of economic development methods, promoted industrial transformation and upgrading, and improved the international competitiveness of the manufacturing industry. The consensus of the community. The textile industry, which has always been dedicated to getting rid of its inherent impressions, has a stronger desire for green development.

“The green transformation and upgrading of the textile industry and the green process of fiber manufacturing are the key links. Green, low-carbon, and recycling are important tasks for China’s chemical fiber industry and even the textile industry to achieve sustainable development. Starting from the source of textiles, the It is of far-reaching significance to promote the green process from the fiber to the end product's entire industrial chain.” He Yanli, vice president of the China Chemical Fiber Industry Association, pointed out that at present, China’s chemical fiber industry has entered a crucial period of transformation and upgrading, and the concept of green environmental protection is not only establishing China. The important factor of the new image of textile giants is also a necessary condition for enterprises to establish themselves in the industry.

Sun Huaibin, vice president of the China Textile Industry Federation, believes that fiber is one of the basic raw materials for the textile industry. The greening of the industry should begin with the greenization of fibers. This is a starting point. “Green fiber certification is a kind of exploration and attempt to incorporate fiber production enterprises into the fiber green production system with a sign certification method, promote green development with regulations and regulations, and greenize the entire textile industry. Development plays an important role."

From the beginning, starting from the source, green development has become one of the main themes of the textile industry.

Launch green fiber mark certification

Based on the above considerations, in March 2016, under the guidance of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the China Chemical Fiber Industry Association and the National Textile Chemical Fiber Product Development Center jointly initiated the certification of green fiber marks, aiming to regulate the market through third-party certification and management. Promote the green design, green materials, green manufacturing and recycling development of China's chemical fiber industry, achieve a new leap in green transformation and upgrading, better reflect the social responsibility of chemical fiber industry, and enhance the competitiveness of enterprises and products in domestic and foreign markets. .

According to the authoritative interpretation, green fiber refers to chemical fibers that are derived from biomass and recycled materials, have a low-carbon environment during the production process, and are environmentally friendly or recyclable after the finished product is discarded. They mainly include bio-based chemical fibers. , recycled chemical fiber, and colored liquid chemical fiber three major categories. The green fiber certification mark is registered by the State Administration for Industry and Commerce. The China Chemical Fiber Industry Association is the holder of the green fiber mark and enjoys the trademark exclusive right of the green fiber mark.

In the past three years, with the release of the "Green Fiber Labeling Downstream User Management Rules (Trial)" and the concept of green fiber, the certification of green fiber has received extensive attention in the industry. Green fiber certification has also been listed as a key task in the “Telecultural Industry Development Plan (2016~2020)”. At present, it has formed an authentication system composed of organizational structure, operation mechanism, and security system, and has been continuously improved in practice. sound. According to statistics, 21 chemical fiber companies have passed green fiber certification.

20 500ml polyester bottles can make a top

“At present, the chemical fiber industry is facing the problem of gradual depletion of resources and serious pollution. China's chemical fiber industry must solve raw materials and pollution problems in order to achieve healthy and sustainable development. This is also the significance of the development of green fiber products,” said Zhao Qingzhang, consultant at the China Textile Academy. Green fiber from the raw material to the finished product has realized the change from the concept of waste to resources, while using more advanced equipment, to achieve significant progress in the process.

“Twenty 500ml polyester bottles can make one coat; recycling 1 ton of recycled polyester fiber can reduce 3.2 tons of CO2 emissions; fabrics made from liquid colored fibers can save costs by 30 tons per ton. % ~ 50%.All kinds of data show that the popularization and application of green fiber can reduce resource consumption and ecological loss, promote eco-civilization construction with resource conservation, and promote harmonious coexistence between man and nature. This is the concrete action we practice green development. He Yanli said that in the process of advocating green production, green fiber manufacturers are expected to have high hopes. She also stressed the need to expand the scope of green fiber certification companies to better promote the green development of the chemical fiber industry; through green fiber stringed up the textile green chain upstream and downstream, and jointly promote the sustainable development of the textile industry.

Data show that China's textile fiber processing capacity is 50 million tons per year, of which chemical fiber accounts for 84%. To better create "green mountains and green mountains," we must take the path of green development, recycling development, and low-carbon development. He Yanli emphasized that “As an upstream of the textile and apparel industry chain, the chemical fiber industry has the responsibility to provide good raw materials for downstream companies. Green fiber certification must be used as the starting point, promote the use of green fiber, and promote the green production of the entire industry chain.”
