Life Cycle assessment of denim: A review

Original language description

The textile industry has one of the largest environmental impacts in the world. Due to ecological concerns, it is necessary to find the ways to reduce these environmental impacts. This is true with denim as it is made of cotton, which, in most cases, is a very polluting crop, dyed with indigo, a dye with a very damaging degree of fixation which initiates huge ecological problems. Life cycle assessment provides data from every stage of a product's life, from the cradle to the grave (i.e., from raw material extraction through cultivation, manufacturing, distribution, use, repair and maintenance, and disposal or recycling). These data can be considered as one of the first ways to reduce environmental impacts. Therefore, the life cycle assessment of denim and how it affects the ecosystem is important to know. This article will provide some ideas about the life cycle assessment and its importance, life cycle of denim, life cycle assessment tool, phases of the life cycle assessment and a life cycle assessment of denim with actual data.
