Textiles 2030 is the trailblazing initiative for fashion and textiles companies in the UK.

Textiles 2030 will transform the way that the UK supplies, uses and disposes of clothing and textiles.

Under the Food Loss and Waste Standard and the Food Waste Reduction Roadmap Roadmap guidelines biomaterial processing is NOT classified as a food waste destination. To help businesses assess if any of your material qualifies, new guidelines and a supporting assessment tool have been developed.

Awarded projects

These grants will support projects that demonstrate new and proven citizen interventions that will encourage and influence citizens to reduce food waste. The aim of this grant is to support new, behaviour change interventions that encourage citizens to waste less food.

Everything you need to know about getting started in sustainable fashion and textiles - from regulation and measurement, to tried and tested strategies for cutting carbon. 

Textiles take-back schemes, where customers donate unwanted clothing to retailers to be re-used or recycled, are a key part of developing a more circular fashion industry.

Research from WRAP in 2009 found UK hotels, pubs, restaurants and quick service restaurants disposed of 600,000 tonnes of food waste.

• Some of this is made up of things like peelings, cores and bones, but the majority is (or once was) perfectly good food. 
• Little by little all this waste adds up.
• WRAP research indicates that by not throwing away good food (and diverting food waste  such as peelings, bones etc. to anaerobic digestion) pubs restaurants and hotels in the UK could save more than￡720 million a year.

This document has been produced by WRAP to demonstrate how the Food Waste Prevention – a guide to help you & your business challenge existing product life & ‘open’ life (the guide) can be used. This worked example is theoretical and has been based on a raw meat product.

This guidance has been produced by WRAP to help businesses to reduce food waste by giving consumers more ‘available’ life on the products they buy, with a focus on improved performance in the supply chain and no change to the product or packaging. It is aimed at employees working in the food manufacturing and retail industry whose roles can have a direct influence on the supply of their products to consumers.

This guidance has been produced by WRAP to help businesses to reduce food waste by challenging existing product life & ‘open’ life, with a view to extending it, without any change to product or packaging. It is intended for employees working in the food manufacturing and retail industry whose roles can have a direct influence on setting the product life/ ‘open’ life on finished products.
