According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Textile Recycling Market Report by Product Type (Cotton Recycling, Wool Recycling, Polyester & Polyester Fiber Recycling, Nylon & Nylon Fiber Recycling, and Others), Textile Waste (Pre-consumer Textile, Post-consumer Textile), Distribution Channel (Online Channel, Retail & Departmental Store), End-Use (Apparel, Industrial, Home Furnishings, Non-woven, and Others), and Region 2025-2033,” the global textile recycling market size reached USD 5.40 Billion in 2024. Textile recycling is the process of recovering old garments and other textiles for reuse and material recovery. It includes donating, collecting, sorting, processing, and transportation of used garments, rags, and other recovered materials to end users. It assists in avoiding the use of virgin fibers, reducing consumption of energy and water, generating less pollution, and minimizing the need for dyes.
Global Textile Recycling Market Trends:
At present, there is a rise in the demand for textile recycling on account of the growing environmental concerns and increasing awareness about the detrimental impact of waste incineration, heavy industrial discharges from textile mills, and depletion of silk and wool. This, along with the burgeoning textile industry across the globe, represents one of the key factors driving the market. Moreover, there is a rise in public awareness about the benefits of recycling old clothes. This, coupled with the increasing number of collection bins for cloth sorting at parking spaces, parks, shopping malls, and walkways, is propelling the growth of the market. In addition, several recycling companies are launching awareness campaigns about textile recycling and introducing door-to-door pickup programs for old garments. Looking forward, the market value is projected to reach USD 6.71 Billion by 2033, expanding at a CAGR of 2.39% during the forecast period (2025-2033).
