Take-Back Programs for Fashion Brands’ Garments in Sustainable Manufacturing Systems
摘要
In the fashion industry, sustainability and circular economy are crucial aspects to consider for many companies because customers are more and more environmentally and socially conscious during their buying decisions. Thus, new circular fashion programs have been launched to limit the negative consequences of downstream processes inside the fashion supply chain. In fact, a key component of closed-loop manufacturing systems based on reprocessing materials, reassembling, and reproducing garments efficiently, currently involves take-back programs. Therefore, the aim of this chapter is to provide an overview of take-back programs and their challenges for fashion companies.
