6.1.9 Waste Management

Factories minimize waste by segregating textile scraps, recovering chemicals, recycling packaging, and reusing production residues wherever possible. Many manufacturers analyze waste streams to identify opportunities for reduction and increase the recovery of valuable materials before disposal.

Ask your supplier: how are production waste streams segregated, what share is reused or recycled, and which companies receive them?
