ECOTOOL is a digital tool available for Professional Textile Care companies for measuring sustainability according to international best practices. With ECOTOOL, the laundry managers will have a complete life cycle analysis (LCA) tool of textile products and you will be able to quantify the sustainability of the textile for its entire lifetime. This way, you will be able to benchmark your current operation with another type of textiles or machinery and with OPL/domestic laundry setups.
Among the benefits provided by ECOTOOL is benchmark your operation with several processes (e.g. differences between laundry machinery) and some standard products like:
– Workwear industry, general
– Workwear food industry
– Roller towel
– Uniform health care
– Bedsheet health care
– Residential care garments, underwear
– Residential care garments, shirt
– Towel (100% cotton, 80/20 cotton / PET, and with recycled cotton
Through ECOTOOL, you will know exactly what your company’s eco-footprint is through the complete supply chain based on the following KPI’s: CO2 emission, the primary energy content of a product, water consumption, consumption of chemicals, land use, and mass balance.
Therefore, the utilization of such tools could be beneficial for the brands known for their sustainability efforts and for consumers to know the exact amount of environmental impact they could reduce by selecting sustainable options.
