While moving hand in hand towards sustainability and the future, our main focus and strength is to produce fabrics that encourage Environmentally Friendly sustainable fabrics by reducing pollution through innovative strategies of recycling waste and striving towards zero waste.
Sustainability may initially come to mind as protecting the environment, but sustainability is actually a concept that encompasses ecological, economic, and social dimensions. To ensure sustainability, all these components must be managed in harmony with a persistent and dynamic approach. With increasing population and consumption rates, human demands and needs are also increasing.
It is our responsibility to protect and preserve our world and its resources for future generations, while continuing to meet human needs and desires without compromising social welfare.
The textile industry is a major consumer of water, energy, and chemicals needed at different stages of the production process. Textile waste causes 20% of global water pollution. The textile industry is responsible for 10% of global carbon emissions. The proportion of textile products in landfills in the world and Turkey is around 8%.
The textile industry is one of the most active sectors in realizing the environmental problems it creates and taking sustainability measures. At Gama Alliance, we aim to give a new life to fabrics by implementing sustainable production processes and improving them.
We extend the life of fibers
We reduce the demand for raw materials from abroad
We contribute to the rescue of a portion of clothing that goes to the landfill or incinerator each year
We prevent future clothing waste
Definitions of the terms “Regenerate,” “Recycle,” and “Upcycle” in textile recycling terminology are provided below;
Regenerated Fiber: Fibers obtained after the recovery of used clothing and garment waste through mechanical methods
Regenerated Yarn: Yarns made from a mixture of virgin and regenerated fibers (polyester, acrylic, cotton, etc.) and produced according to the end-use area.
Recycle: The process of reusing a used product by incorporating it back into the life cycle for reuse or further use. In textile terminology, it usually refers to the recycling of PET bottles or similar thermoplastic polymers through the extrusion method.
Recycled PET Fiber: The form of PET flakes obtained from chemically washing and mechanically breaking down PET bottle and packaging waste, which have been converted into fiber through thermal processes.
