SUSTAINABILITY IN TEXTILES

Sustainability Indicator - Calculator

This online calculator helps you instantly calculate the sustainability Indicator of the textile product.  The Sustainability score of the textile product would be the sum of the points accrued across all 5 categories, with a maximum of 100 points. The information needed for this score can be collected from the product information label, brand websites and advertisments. If information about a particular sustainability practice is not available in brand communication, that practice should be deemed 'not followed' by the brand.

This checklist can be used by fashion brands, manufacturers, and consumers to compare the sustainability of different textile products and materials.
