The textile industry is undergoing a structural transformation: With regulations such as the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) and Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), the focus is shifting from end-of-life considerations toward a holistic assessment across the entire product lifecycle. As a result, decisions regarding material selection, chemistry, and process design are moving to the forefront of process engineering considerations.

For process engineering, this marks a fundamental shift in perspective. Processes are no longer evaluated solely in terms of efficiency and cost, but increasingly by their long-term environmental impact and how they influence product longevity, and regulatory compliance.
