Since the beginning of the 21st century, natural resources such as cotton and wool have become increasingly scarce. Petroleum-based fibers such as polyester, nylon and spandex have caused certain pollution to the environment. The concept of green environmental protection has become more and more popular. The textile and apparel industry is under tremendous pressure. Many international brands have developed plans to use recycled materials to make garments, which are designed to reduce waste of resources and reduce environmental pollution through the use of recycled materials. The GRS standard is born in response to the development of the times. In 2008, the World Qualifications (CU) developed the Global Recycle Standard (GRS) global recycled standard, and in 2011 transferred ownership to the Textile Exchange.
In recent years, Fengshu has been accelerating the pace of technological development and striving for the harmonious coexistence of people, environment and enterprise development. As a leader in environmental protection and green production in the industry, it has naturally joined the ranks of textiles using recycled materials. After passing the Oeko-Tex Standard 100 eco-textile product certification, this year passed the GRS (Global Recycled Standard) certification, which has strengthened the company's social responsibility, environmental compliance, quality control in the production of recycled products. The norm has played a positive role in the standardization of the Fengshu, and further enhance the competitiveness of the company's "green" and "environmental protection" in the international market.
