Mass Balance Attribution: Never heard of it?

Most of what we wear is still made from fossil-based feedstocks. Mass balance attribution will not change that overnight, but it offers a practical way for the industry to start integrating renewable inputs into existing supply chains today, without requiring dedicated production lines or entirely new facilities to keep renewable and fossil feedstocks physically separate. This article introduces a useful accounting method for beginning that transition.

Biosynthetic Feedstock Evaluation

The Biosynthetic Feedstock Evaluation is an initiative in collaboration with BESTSELLER, aimed at accelerating the industry’s shift towards alternatives to fossil-fuel polymers. The assessment will be conducted in partnership with industry experts, nova-Institute.

Problem Statement

The apparel industry faces immense pressure to meet the 1.5°C target set by the Paris Agreement, with fashion accounting for 2-8% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Scope 3 emissions, especially from processing (Tier 2), represent a critical challenge. Shifting to dry processing technologies has the potential to reduce water and energy use, contributing to lower emissions and a smaller environmental footprint.

Stakeholders involved

The D(R)YE Factory of the Future project brought together key industry leaders and innovators committed to revolutionizing textile processing. The project’s brand stakeholders included:
