The global ESG wave continues to advance, and the 2050 net-zero carbon emission target has become a global consensus. The Resource Recycling Administration of the Ministry of Environment also promulgated the "Guidelines for the Circular Procurement of Apparel and Textiles by Governments and Private Sectors" on January 24, 2013, allowing single-material Sustainable uniforms become the next important ESG indicator.
According to the BBC report, more than 100 billion pieces of clothing are produced globally every year, and 82% of used clothes will eventually become waste, causing inestimable environmental pollution on the earth. Shin Kong Textile is committed to providing customers with high-quality clothing, and pays more attention to the issue of environmental protection and sustainability. During its more than 70 years of working in the textile industry, it has seen the huge amount of uniforms discarded by corporate groups and caused a lot of environmental pollution, so it actively invests resources in sustainable clothing to promote innovation. We have also successfully launched the INFINITY SHIRT PROJECT (ISP), led by enterprises. Through ISP, we can help corporate group uniforms achieve "infinite recycling, zero waste, and green procurement" and truly implement 100% single-material sustainable uniforms.
At the same time, through Taiwan's first "clothes to clothes infinite recycling", it can be completely recycled and reused, truly reusing resources, effectively reducing the demand for new raw materials and environmental impact, allowing clothes to be infinitely recycled throughout their lives.

Subvert the industry! Xinguang Textile ISP’s new green procurement strategy
Shin Kong Textile is the first company and supply chain in Taiwan to recycle a single material in an environmentally friendly manner. It is also the first company in Taiwan to recycle 100% of uniforms.
Zhang Ruinan, general manager of Shin Kong Textile, said: "Since Shin Kong Textile was founded, Shin Kong Textile has always been responsible for the environment and the enterprise. It is not only responsible for the enterprise, but also for employees and the environment. As a pioneer in the textile industry, we firmly believe that environmental issues need to be addressed from the fundamentals. Solve it."
The ISP plan will debut at the Première Vision textile fabrics exhibition in Paris, France in 2020, showing the first shirt that is fully introduced into ISP. The entire shirt includes fabric, lining, buttons, collar, padding, etc., and even the outer packaging The boxes are all made of 100% recyclable single raw material PET bottle yarn. We are the first company in the industry to propose and develop a single material fully recycled.
Shin Kong Textile hopes that by changing the recycling revolution of textiles, clothes can be 100% recycled in their lifetime. Therefore, with the business philosophy of "clothes to clothes infinite recycling", we are moving towards the sustainable goal of zero waste. We firmly believe that the original intention of recycling is to Allowing materials to circulate efficiently instead of consuming more energy. Therefore, we have prepared more than ten years of technology and improvement to launch the ISP "Sustainable Uniforms" project, which not only provides corporate customers with group uniform customization services, but also has a complete mechanism for replacing old uniforms with new ones, allowing green procurement to be seamlessly integrated into the enterprise. In business decision-making, it becomes an indispensable partner in the process of achieving sustainable management of enterprises.
Zero waste, low carbon emissions! ISP closed loop allows group uniforms to practice "clothes to clothes"!
Xinguang Textile has long listened to the voices of customers and provided high-quality services based on customer needs. Wang Renzong, associate director of the retail department of Xinguang Textile, said: "Xinguang Textile is committed to providing new options for green procurement for various industries. In the "clothing to clothing infinite cycle" of a single material "In this way, the service life of clothing materials can be extended while greatly reducing the resource loss on the raw material side."
In order to achieve "zero waste and zero pollution", many difficulties need to be overcome. For example, the fabric and accessory materials must be of a single material before they can be recycled. Although chemical fibers such as polyester are difficult to decompose, their yarns The thread strength is 2 times that of cotton, and the stretch rate is 10 times that of cotton. Xinguang Textile uses powerful innovative technology to upcycle and recycle polyester fiber to make clothes, which can be recycled and remade into high-performance clothing. It can have a cotton-like feel, denim, wool feel, and can even be made into down jackets.
Moreover, in the sustainable cycle of "clothes to clothes", whether it is replacement or wear and tear, the products can be sent back to the raw material production end through the recycling system in the ISP plan. After shredding, granulation, and spinning, it is used as a new raw material to achieve a 100% closed sustainable cycle, effectively reducing the carbon dioxide emissions caused by the discarding, burying, and burning of corporate uniforms, and making the garment manufacturing process no longer generate energy. Waste, effective recycling of resources, and reduction of raw material mining on the earth not only provide companies with new options for green procurement, but are also an important part of the circular economy, bringing positive impact to the global environment.
Associate Director Wang Renzong pointed out that in addition to actively working on sustainability, Shin Kong Textile also hopes to let the public bid farewell to the stereotype of environmentally friendly clothing. Shin Kong Textile's sustainable uniforms are not only environmentally friendly, comfortable, durable, moisture-absorbent, quick-drying and anti- UV rays and aesthetics at the same time.
In addition to corporate group uniforms, Shin Kong Textile has also launched a sub-brand "FYNE" with the same ISP concept. It is the first environmentally friendly clothing brand in Taiwan that uses 100% recycled fabrics and a single material. The concept of infinite recycling allows consumers to join the effort. Participate and purchase environmentally friendly and sustainable clothing through the "FYNE" platform. Everything from office suits and casual sportswear to warm wool coats and cotton scarves are all 100% recyclable.
Use a piece of fabric to change a piece of land, a sustainable and comfortable daily companion " FYNE "
Looking forward to bringing consumers simple and comfortable clothing that is suitable for daily life, and at the same time committed to caring for the environment and achieving sustainable recycling, "FYNE" was officially founded in 2021.
In line with the ISP project concept, FYNE takes "zero waste" as its ultimate goal. It is led by an experienced team and is committed to developing regenerative production technology to interpret an elegant and comfortable life in the fast-paced fashion trend.
In "FYNE" products, not only can you see single-material fabrics presented in various wool feel, denim feel, and even cotton-paved feel, but more importantly, "FYNE" allows consumers to directly participate in the entire clothing cycle. The journey makes the business philosophy of "limited resources, unlimited regeneration" the core value of "FYNE".
The brand "FYNE" has also launched "Project Fool 2.0", which has the same goal as the company's uniform recycling mechanism. It aims to provide consumers who purchase "FYNE" clothing with a complete recycling mechanism, continue to build a recycling ecology and provide feedback dividends.
Shin Kong Textile Group Uniforms and its own brand "FYNE" both believe that the original intention of recycling is to allow materials to be recycled effectively instead of consuming more energy. Environmental protection and style are not single-choice questions. We firmly believe that while implementing the concept of sustainability, we can also Having all the beauty brought by clothing allows companies and consumers to practice the concept of sustainability.
According to a study by the Textile Industry Development Association of the Republic of China (Textile Industry Development Association) and the British Standards Institution (BSI), taking men's short-sleeved Polo shirts as an example, the recycling of materials through the ISP project can significantly reduce the carbon footprint by 58%. , providing substantial results for sustainable development. If the concept of "clothes to clothes, infinite recycling" can be truly implemented in textiles, it will bring actual benefits of circular economy to enterprises and reuse more resources.
Shin Kong Textile finally revealed that many companies are now preparing for green procurement and have joined the ranks of sustainable uniforms, including: Shin Kong Product Insurance, Farglory Ocean Park, Taishin Financial Holdings, Taiwan Sanyuan Energy Technology (Taiwan Cement Enterprise Group) etc., all cooperate with Shin Kong Textile Group Uniforms. In the future, Shin Kong Textile Group Uniforms will also provide sustainable uniform services for banks, military and police, campuses, medical care, transportation and other industries.
