The markets for collection, sorting, reuse and recycling of textiles have no specific regulations like most other waste fractions. This has led to a situation with many unserious market players. Improvements are crucial in order to develop a professional market as a basis for increased reuse and recycling. The project aims to develop a common business standard for Nordic textile collection, reuse and recycling companies based on a voluntary commitment. At the end of the project a group of Nordic textile companies and organizations should be willing to enter the commitment.
