Keeping textile-diversion claims defensible
How to keep recycling and diversion claims specific, sourced, and defensible.
Avoid greenwashing by making only the textile claims you can prove. Cite documented diversion tonnage and recovery figures backed by Certificates of Destruction, use specific sourced numbers rather than vague "eco-friendly" language, and draw a clear line between diverting material from landfill and genuinely recovering it into new fiber.
Regulators and the public are scrutinizing sustainability claims. Vague textile-recycling statements are a growing reputational and legal risk.
The defense is specificity: state what was diverted, how much, and into what, each figure backed by documentation.
Closed-loop recovery, measured and certificate-backed, is far more defensible than an unqualified "recycled" label.
