The Green Journey of Textile | SiT

From Farm to Hanger: The Green Journey of the Textile Industry
🧵 Greece, with its deep tradition in cotton production and modern expertise in textiles, has all the tools to lead the transition toward a green and circular fashion industry.

Through the European project SiT (Sustainability in Textiles), SMEs and professionals in the sector gain the knowledge and tools to transform the way they produce and design products:

🔹 Developing Green Skills
Participants are trained in circular production practices — from selecting eco-friendly raw materials to optimizing energy efficiency throughout their processes. They learn how to integrate sustainable solutions at every stage of production.

🔹 Designing Long-Lasting Products
The project encourages the design of textiles and products that are more durable, easily repairable, and reusable. This reduces the need for new production and minimizes waste.

🔹 Adopting Tools to Reduce Environmental Impact
Through innovative methods and digital tools, businesses can monitor resource consumption, reduce chemical and water usage, and implement more responsible production practices.

The result?
A greener, circular, and more competitive textile industry — not only for Greece but across Europe. Fashion can become responsible, modern, and environmentally friendly, and SiT plays a key role in driving this transition. ♻️💚
