Down jacket fabric production involves a number of environmental issues, need to pay attention to the following aspects:
1. Raw material collection: Down jacket fabrics are usually filled with goose down or duck down, and the collection of these down is closely related to animal welfare issues. In order to ensure environmental protection, suppliers recognized by the relevant authorities should be selected, and in accordance with relevant laws and regulations and standards, to ensure that the collection process of plush causes minimal damage to the welfare of birds.
2. Use of chemicals: In the production process of down jacket fabrics, it may be necessary to use a variety of chemicals, such as dyes, water repellents, oil repellents, etc. When choosing chemicals, priority should be given to environmentally friendly alternatives that reduce pollution to the environment. At the same time, it is necessary to control the use of chemicals, avoid excessive use, and reduce the discharge of waste water and exhaust gases.
3. Water management: The production of down jacket fabrics requires a lot of water, such as washing, dyeing, processing and other links. In order to reduce water consumption, some water-saving measures can be taken, such as installing circulating water systems and recycling and reusing wastewater. In addition, the wastewater needs to be treated to ensure that the wastewater discharged meets the relevant standards and reduces the pollution of water resources.
4. Waste treatment: down jacket fabric production process will produce a lot of waste, such as waste water, waste dyes, waste plastics, etc. The disposal of these wastes has a great impact on the environment, and effective measures should be taken to classify, recycle and dispose them. For example, recyclable waste can be reused through garbage sorting and recycling to reduce the negative impact on the environment.
5. Energy consumption: A lot of energy, such as electricity and gas, is required in the production process of down jacket fabrics. In order to reduce energy consumption, energy-saving measures should be taken, such as the use of efficient equipment and technology, reasonable arrangement of production plans, and reduce energy waste. At the same time, the use of renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power, can be considered to reduce the dependence on traditional energy sources.
6. Packaging and transportation: The packaging and transportation of down jacket fabrics is also an important part of environmental protection issues. In terms of packaging, we should try to choose degradable or recyclable packaging materials to reduce the burden on the environment. In terms of transportation, transportation plans should be rationally arranged to reduce transportation miles and reduce the impact on energy and air quality.
7. Environmental monitoring and compliance: down fabric manufacturers should establish an environmental monitoring mechanism to regularly monitor and test environmental emissions in the production process. At the same time, it should comply with national and local environmental laws and regulations, ensure the compliance of production processes, and actively participate in environmental protection activities and plans to improve the environmental awareness and responsibility of enterprises.
In summary, the production of down jacket fabrics needs to pay attention to environmental issues such as raw material collection, chemical use, water management, waste treatment, energy consumption, packaging and transportation, as well as environmental monitoring and compliance. By taking corresponding measures and methods, we can reduce the pollution and damage to the environment and achieve sustainable development.
