Step 2: Process short-listing based on environmental focus
With Clariant ONE WAY, dyes and chemicals have been screened and clustered into groups based on their environmental focus. This will allow textile manufacturers to narrow their selection of potential products to the process group that best fits their environmental focus, whether this is CO2 emissions, savings in water or energy or the amount of waste water generated.
The Swiss specialty chemicals group Clariant announced the introduction of a new service called ONE WAY that helps textile mills, brands and retailers#
Step 3: Solution selection based on cost & eco-benefits calculations
A sophisticated calculation software tool, which will be the cornerstone of the ONE WAY toolbox, is currently in final testing phase and will be available by January 2013.
This calculation tool will allow customers to make an informed decision by delivering the overall cost and performance profile – including dyes, chemicals, water, energy and time – and the impact of each textile solution against key ecological performance indicators, such as chemical oxygen demand, biological oxygen demand, CO2 emissions, energy and water.
As a leading supplier of chemical solutions for the textile industry, Clariant has a long-term commitment to developing products and application processes that are safer for the consumer, and have less impact on the environment. In May 2012, it joined the Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC). Clariant is also a member of the Textile Exchange and is a System Partner of bluesign.
