Parcours pédagogique sur l'impact environnemental

Découvrez le replay de notre webinaire consacré à l'analyse du cycle de vie (ACV) avec la participation de Steve Duhamel, Environmental Footprint Manager chez Lacoste.

Dans le cadre du projet européen Interreg Preventing Plastic Pollution, des scientifiques de l’Ifremer, de l’Université de Bretagne Occidentale, du CNRS et de l’Université du Mans étudient les effets des microfibres synthétiques et naturelles sur le métabolisme des huîtres.

Le champ de ce rapport couvre la pollution causée par les microparticules solides d’une taille inférieure à 5 mm, non solubles et non biodégradables, composées de polymères bio-sourcés ou non, émises par les produits d’origine textile destinés à l’habillement et à l’équipement de la maison.

L’objectif principal de cette étude est d’analyser l’impact du remplacement d’une fermeture à glissière sur l’impact global d’une veste de protection KAMET LIGHT HOMME afin de valider dans quelle mesure la réparation est une solution plus responsable pour l’environnement.

This report presents an analysis on the fashion industry’s GHG emissions and outlines areas in which players can focus their efforts to meet climate targets.

Textile materials are one of the primary sources of microplastic pollution. The washing procedure is by far the most significant way that textile products release microplastic fibers (MPFs). Therefore, in this study, the effects of various textile raw materials (A acrylic, PA polyamide, PET polyester, RPET recycled polyester and PP polypropylene), fabric construction properties (woven, knitted), thickness and basis weight values on MPFs release at different washing stages (pre-washing, soaping/rinsing) were examined separately.

This research critically reviewed the influence of textile characteristics, including textile content (fiber composition), yarn construction, material structure, and treatment type, on microplastic release from textile products during washing.

This guidance document aims to quantify a company's positive impact on GHG emissions. We focus here on the contribution of a company's solutions to reduce their clients direct and indirect emissions.

Microplastic fibers are shed from synthetic textiles during their user phase, primarily during washing. However, there is little known about their origin, except that they are likely embedded in textiles already since their production. Therefore, we systematically examined the presence of microplastic fibers during the process of yarn production..

This study develops an environmental analysis of recycled wool fibers through the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology, mainly using primary data.

This report encourages actors in the industry to set ambitious, evidence-based environmental impact reduction goals to drive meaningful change to secure a more sustainable future for fashion.

In this second white paper, we further demonstrate that even the environmental impact of fashion is not being correctly assessed, neither broadly, nor narrowly.
