Eco Project in Woolen Textile Cluster

Abstract

In this paper, we study the flow of woolen products for recycling in the Bishu Region, Aichi, from the viewpoint of industrial cluster and consider rejuvenation of the mature region based on the major retailers' challenges. Woolen textile has been reproduced by recycling in the region. The increased awareness towards environmental issues has led to new business development by recycling used cloths to create original threads. The complete work from sorting of used cloths to spinning, recovering, twisting, weaving, fixing and processing is divided between SMEs in the region to be placed on the market as recycled apparel products.
