When green, low-carbon, and sustainable development have become a global consensus, and China's textile and chemical fiber industry has grasped the new positioning of "technology, fashion, and green" to comprehensively and deeply promote high-quality development, how to create China's own green related industry chain certification system, instead of relying solely on the numerous certification systems of the United States and the European Union, and how to rely on China's own relevant certification system It is particularly crucial to comprehensively enhance the voice and influence of China's textile and chemical fiber industry in the global industrial competition system.
On March 29th, under the guidance of the Consumer Products Industry Department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, organized by the China Chemical Fiber Industry Association and the National Advanced Functional Fiber Innovation Center, and co-organized by Jiangsu Ruibang Technology Co., Ltd., the Ruibang China Fiber Zero Carbon Action 2023 was held in Shanghai. At the meeting, the authoritative certification platform of China's textile and chemical fiber industry, the Green Fiber Products Trusted Platform, was launched.
The use of national secondary node analysis technology, blockchain technology, supply chain traceability system and other informatization means can realize the Digital transformation and upgrading of the whole industrial chain from fiber it finished end products and online transactions, and can trace the whole process information With the blessing of science and technology and information technology, China's textile chemical fiber industry is winning a greater right of speech in the era of surging digital and informatization waves.
Each product has a unique "ID card"
To promote the green development of the global textile and chemical fiber industry, China's chemical fiber industry is duty-bound.
Chemical fiber is an important fiber raw material in the textile industry, and China is the world's largest producer and consumer of chemical fiber. In 2022, China's chemical fiber production has reached 64.88 million tons, accounting for over 85% of China's total fiber processing volume and over 70% of the global chemical fiber production.
Ruibang · China Fiber Zero Carbon Action 2023 leads the entire chemical fiber industry in China to respond to green development. From an industrial perspective, we strive to respect, comply with, and protect nature, actively respond to environmental, resource, and climate risks, actively participate in global environmental governance, and practice the low-carbon development model of "energy conservation, consumption reduction, pollution reduction, and efficiency enhancement", It is also a solemn oath by the Chinese fiber industry to contribute to the modernization of harmonious coexistence between humans and nature.
The release of a trusted platform for green fiber products is the first major event of the "Ruibang China Fiber Zero Carbon Action 2023".
The "Green Fiber Products Trusted Platform" is guided by the Consumer Products Industry Department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Suzhou Market Supervision and Administration Bureau, and jointly operated by the China Chemical Fiber Industry Association and the National Advanced Functional Fiber Innovation Center.
Cao Xiuyu, the head of the platform operation of the National Advanced Functional Fiber Innovation Center, introduced that the platform uses national secondary node analysis technology, blockchain technology, supply chain traceability system and other information means to provide lightweight applications for the upstream and downstream of the whole industrial chain of green fiber products, realize the Digital transformation and upgrading of the whole industrial chain from fiber to end products, and online transactions, and realize production data, warehousing data, logistics data Trusted uplink of transaction data.
At present, the trusted platform for green fiber products mainly focuses on the category of recycled polyester. It has designed data links throughout the entire industry chain from the source of recycled polyester raw materials - bottle chip factories, to slicing factories, to intermediate yarn and fabric factories, as well as the final clothing and brand. It has achieved the procurement, raw material input and output, production consumption, silk cakes, packaging, finished product input and output, invoices The data for green certification of the final product is transparently linked up.
Users can trace their entire process information by scanning the blockchain QR code on the certificate, and each product can have its own 'ID card' through digital means, "Cao Xiuyu said.
The establishment of a trusted platform for green fiber products can improve the transparency and credibility of products, and also provide customers with valuable and high-quality products and services, "said Mei Feng, Chairman of the National Advanced Functional Fiber Innovation Center.
At present, 26 enterprises have entered the "Green Fiber Products Trusted Platform", including Jiangsu Guowang High tech Fiber Co., Ltd., Jiangsu Zhongyi Technology Development Co., Ltd., Jiangsu Ruibang Technology Co., Ltd., Fujian Baichuan Resource Recycling Technology Co., Ltd., and others.
This platform is actually like a 'circle of friends'. All the outstanding enterprises participating in the platform have made their own contributions to China's renewable fiber industry chain. In the future, we will work together to develop China's renewable fiber industry well, and we are confident in operating the platform well, "said Mei Feng.
Platform "support" to enhance the green connotation of the industry
In the era of surging global digital economy, when technological means such as digital economy, blockchain, and information technology "support" the manufacturing industry, China's textile and chemical fiber industry is accelerating the promotion of high-quality development, but it is also possible to achieve "overtaking" in the global market.
He Yaqiong, Director of the Consumer Goods Industry Department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, stated that the textile industry is at the forefront in areas such as green manufacturing, recycling, and sustainable management innovation. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is continuously strengthening industrial policy guidance, issuing the "Guiding Opinions on the High Quality Development of the Chemical Fiber Industry", promulgating and revising the "Normative Conditions for the Recycled Chemical Fiber (Polyester) Industry" and the "Interim Measures for the Announcement Management of Normative Conditions for the Recycled Chemical Fiber (Polyester) Industry", promoting the high-quality, efficient, and high-value recycling of waste resources such as waste textiles and bottles, Promote the structural adjustment and industrial upgrading of the chemical fiber (polyester) industry for recycling and reuse.
Duan Xiaoping, Vice President of China Textile manufacturing Federation, said that the green development level of China's textile chemical fiber industry is in the leading position in the world. One is that the consumption of raw materials and energy is the lowest, which means that when producing the same quantity of products, China consumes the least resources and energy. Secondly, the production of recycled fibers ranks first globally, accounting for over 2/3 of the total global production of recycled fibers. Thirdly, China's production level of recycled fibers is world-class, covering almost all varieties and specifications of the original products, and the quality is also fully guaranteed.
The achievements made by China's textile and chemical fiber industry in green development are already evident, but a reality that cannot be ignored is that there are still some difficulties in the development of the green fiber industry.
Duan Xiaoping pointed out that one of the difficulties is that "previously, a traceable and reliable product certification system had not been fully established. The industry needs to promote the construction of a complete waste textile recycling system, achieve" zero selling "of old clothing, not only solve the environmental pollution problem of waste, but also provide stable raw material supply for green fiber production. The platform should ensure data security and trustworthiness for manufacturers. At the same time, the construction of the platform cannot be achieved overnight, and requires long-term efforts and careful polishing Duan Xiaoping said.
Zhang Yexing, General Manager of Jiangsu Guowang High tech Co., Ltd., stated that Guowang High tech has always hoped to consider enterprise development issues from a global perspective of industrial development, and provide assistance for the chemical fiber industry and the long-term development of enterprises. We will be committed to building China's own transparent, trustworthy, and traceable industrial internet platform. We also hope that through the China Fiber Zero Carbon Action and the trusted platform for green fiber products, we can increase our investment in equipment upgrading and green and low-carbon development, and provide assistance for us to grasp the green development trend of the industry and practice the 'dual carbon' goal
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is also continuously exploring the establishment of a standard certification system for recycled fibers in China, guiding and supporting the Ruibang China Fiber Zero Carbon Action and the construction of a trusted platform for green fiber products, which is an important focus. "He Yaqiong said," Creating a certification platform for the full lifecycle traceability of green fiber products is conducive to promoting the low-carbon and environmentally friendly circular development of the industry. The Consumer Products Industry Department will strengthen coordination and promotion, Organize and support industry associations, high-quality brand merchants, manufacturers, and platform docking discussions, jointly participate in improving platform construction, and quickly promote the popularity and recognition of trusted platforms in the industry. We hope that this platform can become a Big data platform in which all links of China's textile industry chain can participate, and a professional platform with international influence and integration with the international market.

Let green fiber products "fly into" thousands of households
Our country's textile industry further promotes green and sustainable development, allowing more green fiber products to "fly" into thousands of households in our country and also "fly" to broader overseas markets, making more consumers around the world favor our country's green fiber products. It also requires collaborative innovation and joint efforts from upstream and downstream of the industrial chain.
For the further development of the green fiber industry, consumers' sense of identity needs to be further improved, "Duan Xiaoping pointed out, For consumers, the experience of consuming green clothing is different from that of purchasing green food and green household appliances. Eating green food can make consumers feel healthy and safe, and using green household appliances can reduce their electricity bills, which can directly benefit consumers. However, the green attribute of green fiber products lies in the green source of raw materials and processing process, which is beneficial for everyone to better enjoy the blue sky and white clouds This is an indirect benefit for consumers, as they lack a sense of gain Duan Xiaoping said.
China has the most complete textile and clothing industry chain in the world, which provides a solid guarantee for the industry to implement the 'dual carbon' goals and promote sustainable development. "said Hong Boming, CEO and Creative Director of Jinba Men's Wear, We have indeed felt that China's chemical fiber industry is at the forefront of green development in the world. In the domestic market, there are many fabrics that use recycled fibers for clothing brands to choose from, but from the consumer side, it is difficult for consumers to identify whether the product truly uses recycled fiber raw materials. The trusted platform for green fiber products will greatly promote the consumption of green fiber products. In the future, green will definitely be one of the most beautiful fashion in China, I hope more downstream brands can actively participate in the trusted platform for green fiber products
"Sustainable fashion is a fashion that integrates traditional culture with environmental protection technology and ecological aesthetics." Liu Xuesong, founder of Baopu Regeneration, an environmental protection China-Chic brand, said that brands can attract consumers, instead of "moral kidnapping", but need to spread ideas to make consumers actively accept green fiber products. The release of a trusted platform for green fiber products is of great significance for the development of fashion brands, as it can make consumers feel more confident and at ease when choosing green and environmentally friendly textiles.
