Waste of man-made fibres

CPC v2.1 Code: 39216

About waste of man-made fibres

cpc code 39216 covers the industry of waste of man-made fibres, which is a crucial component of the broader textile and apparel supply chain. This industry plays a vital role in the circular economy, as it facilitates the recycling and reuse of valuable textile materials that would otherwise end up in landfills or incineration. The proper management and processing of man-made fibre waste helps to conserve natural resources, reduce environmental impact, and support the sustainability of the textile industry.

Production process

The main production techniques used in the waste of man-made fibres industry involve the collection, sorting, and processing of textile waste. This typically includes the separation of different fibre types, the removal of contaminants, and the mechanical or chemical breakdown of the waste materials. The processed fibres can then be reintroduced into the manufacturing process, either as raw materials for new textile products or as inputs for other industries, such as 39215 Waste of textile materials.

Production inputs

The primary inputs required for the waste of man-made fibres industry include the collection and aggregation of textile waste, which can come from various sources, such as post-consumer garments, industrial textile scraps, and end-of-life products. Additionally, the industry relies on specialized machinery and equipment for the sorting, cleaning, and processing of the waste materials, as well as access to markets and distribution channels for the recycled fibres.

Production outputs

The main outputs of the waste of man-made fibres industry are the recycled and processed man-made fibres, which can be used as raw materials for the production of new textile products, such as 13100 Textile yarn and thread, 13200 Woven textiles, and 13300 Knitted and crocheted fabrics. The industry also generates secondary outputs, such as waste materials that cannot be recycled, which may be used for other purposes, such as energy recovery or the production of 38110 Waste treatment and disposal services.
