United States Textile Recycling Market

Market Overview:

The United States textile recycling market size reached US$ 1.6 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 2.4 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9% during 2023-2028.

Textile recycling is a method of reusing and reprocessing scraps, old clothing items, and fibrous waste materials. These materials are obtained from discarded clothes, footwear, tires, carpets, furniture, and other non-durable goods, such as sheets and towels. Textile recycling provides several environmental and economic benefits, such as minimizing dependence on virgin fibers, consumption of energy and water, preventing the use of chemical dyes and reducing land and water pollution. Consequently, recycled textiles find extensive application in home furnishings, apparel, construction, automotive, and mining sectors across the United States.

Increasing concerns about waste incineration, depletion of raw materials like wool and silk, and heavy industrial discharges from textile mills represent one of the major factors strengthening the market growth in the United States. Apart from this, rising public awareness about the importance of recycling old clothes and the increasing number of collection bins for cloth sorting are driving the market. However, the recycling companies and traders are struggling to continue their production. This can be accredited to the outbreak of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and lockdown restrictions imposed by the US Government for promoting social distancing measures. The market is expected to recover once normalcy is regained.
