Activist consultants lobbying for nature

Purpose driven consultancy

The Textile Revolution is a purpose driven consultancy that assist textile companies and public organizations in their green transition.

We work to break with old-fashioned linear business models and instead encourage circular solutions where sustainability is an integral part of every company.

How we create value

We are activists lobbying for nature by raising awareness of the massive negative impact that the textile industry has on our planet.

Through partnerships with the most ambitious actors that positively stands out from the rest of the industry, we push for a textile industry with a positive impact on the world. 

Why we need a revolution

Globally, the textile industry accounts for 10% of annual greenhouse gas emissions.

The production and consumption of textiles cause significant pressures on the environment and climate change. The impact is related to mainly land and water used to produce the fibres; but also fossil fuels and chemical dyes used in manufacturing and production, and release of microfibres from synthetic clothes.

At the same time, we produce nearly twice as much clothes as just two decades ago, but use it only half as much. This creates huge problems with overconsumption and overproduction. On average, each person in the EU consume 14.8 kg of textiles per year. Globally, only 25% of all textiles are reused, and less than 1% is recycled.

Advisory Boards and Research

Knowledge sharing and collaboration are at the heart of everything we do. That’s why we take part in advisory boards and councils where we offer professional sparring and contribute solutions that help move the textile industry toward absolute sustainability.

In the same spirit, we engage in publicly funded research and innovation projects together with academic institutions. These collaborations allow us to push the edge of knowledge forward, test what works in reality, and gain insights we bring directly into our consultancy work. By bridging science and practice, we help shape a future that is both ambitious and grounded.
