The process of recovering used fabrics, yarn, and fibers and reprocessing them into comparable useful products is known as textile recycling. In order to reduce landfills, recycling textiles is one of the urgent practices that must be implemented in many nations. Textile products are gathered from a variety of industries and then handled in accordance with their different types, conditions, compositions, and requirements.
Decomposing fibers releases harmful gases into the atmosphere and takes thousands of years. Approximately 2,50,000 tons are thought to be dumped in landfills each year, while 63,000 tons are recycled.
