Abstract
The article analyzes the issues of environmental safety and recycling of fabrics. The impact of natural and synthetic fiber fabrics on the environment during production and consumption is highlighted, and their environmental advantages and disadvantages are indicated. Natural fiber fabrics are biodegradable and hygienically comfortable, but the high consumption of water resources and the use of chemicals in cotton production are noted. Synthetic fiber fabrics exacerbate environmental problems through microplastic waste, but the possibility of using them as secondary raw materials using chemical and mechanical processing technologies is analyzed. According to the results of the study, it is proved that the widespread introduction of fabric recycling technologies, the use of environmentally friendly materials and the improvement of consumer culture are important factors in solving global environmental problems.
