Green Party calls for national strategy for sustainable fashion and textiles

Reduced VAT on clothing repairs and stricter requirements for online platforms like Shein and Temu. These are two of the elements the Green Party wants to see in a national strategy for transitioning to a sustainable textile and fashion industry.

There must be a foundation to push both the industry and us politicians in the right direction, says spokesperson Amanda Lind at a press conference.

The strategy that the Green Party wants to introduce also includes a requirement that all new production must contain at least 20 percent recycled material by 2035 and various measures to improve recycling.
