- If you've ever bought a band t-shirt at a gig or a printed shirt from a fashion retailer, its likely it has been made with a chemical dye or a print.
These processes make it incredibly hard for them to be recycled, which means it will likely end up at landfill after you've finished with it, adding to the 22 million tonnes of textile waste produced each year.
But eco-friendly tech being developed in Sweden could see a new era of reusable printed shirts, erasing old logos and replacing them with something new.

Landfill! Sounds like a London problem! Most people wear their t shirts till they’re worn out and then used for dusters!
I'm an old retired guy with a good income, but in order to reduce my impact on the planet I shop for a lot of my clothes at thrift stores particularly non-profits that use the money to benefit the community. Here in the U.S. many people buy clothes and wear them only a few times before donating them so there is a lot of high quality clothing just waiting for a new owner. We must do much, much more recycle and reuse if we are going to strive for sustainability. Everyone must do their part.
One one hand it is a great idea, on the other it is much cheaper for companies such as H&M or Zara to dispose of unsold garments and produce new ones than to recycle every individual piece.
It’s sad, I don’t think that those big companies will choose the earth 🌍 over their money
exactly, they won't be able to remove the blood, piss and beer stains out of band tshirt anyway
I live in Puerto rico and all the clothes that come here to the stores are returns and old stock, same with the food. Gordon ramsey said once theres a customer food rating and a warehouse rating, we get the warehouse b here, know now that back in the uk we did indeed get a grade. Is this the same for the clothing world? Is there a mass of clothes that dont even make it to the shelves before being shipped elsewhere...i think there is.
Stuck with band t shirts..never heard of eBay.. or charity shops..that doesn't cost anything to recycle and no chemicals. Duh.
Well I’ll just keep on being as simple as possible, using natural fibers, and plant based dyes.
Me too - but you forgot the 'wear them until they're worn out' part. ;)
It is ?? 🙄🤔 Not costly to remove? Or cost more than treatment??🙄
But surely the point is - if I buy the t-shirt at a concert or festival - the part I want to keep is the logo, not the t-shirt.
One chemical to solve the problem of another chemical and then a few years later, the chemical will show some other bad effect; this is the base of human intelligent! It would be easier just put 100% tax on cloth purchase after a “necessary limit”
This! Dihydrogen monoxide (a chemical widely used in manufacturing clothes) is so abundant that it was found in the liver of 100% of people studied. It kills thousands of people each year but the fashion industry insists on using 300,000 KG of it in each shirt they produce. It evaporates quickly but trace amounts can still be found in all clothing.
How much does that cost? $20 a shirt?
The tiny plastic particles washing out of the clothes in the washing machine and goes into the water
This basic concept of excess waste isn’t new. I am & many others keep their clothes and repurpose them, logos or not. They last longer, helps with excess waste, and can be repurposed again. If they can’t be repurposed into clothes, they are saved for quilting or making blankets with.
What a sad life you promote....
@@tastypymp1287 Oh speak for yourself.
i plan to keep every piece i wear, or sell/donate it on the occasion i dont
Whatever happened to homemade tie dye when you ware out or stain a good shirt?
It is disturbing to see this. Some places in the world have so much that they keep wasting while other places have hardly something to wear and keep warm.
Wonder if they could pull off a clothing quota and make companies compete for a percentage of the products that year
The price is the only thing most people care.
Stop making so much plastic in clothing.
Where is the value? Waste of ressources I say...
Where'd you get that laundry machine? 😃
Well, this is fine... but I already use my clothing all the way to the point they become rags. xD And then I use most of it as cleaning cloths.
Stuff that doesn't fit anymore I give it all away. No shortage of demand if you know a church that works with homeless and poor...
Kinda crazy that you'd need tech to remove paints and logos just to recycle them, fast fashion is a modern disease.
Yeah, gotta agree. I'm always sad when a beloved T shirt has too many holes in it to wear out any more.
Ευχαριστούμε!!!Ο Χριστός μαζί μας!!!+++🛐☦️🙋👏💒🇬🇷🤍🌹👍
Non-printed clothes production contribute a lot to the environment in providing a promising sustainability.
Well, the start up idea has a potential to make a difference in recycling process
Keren sekali anda bisa mendaur ulang pakaian bekas berkontribusi untuk lingkungan
*Aaargh just donate those t.shirts end of story!* 🙄😏
▫️A reciclagem e o silkscreen são soluções muito boas para " freiar" a extração de novas commodities para a Indústria têxtil e para o mercado faminto de consumo! Muito obrigada! Bjs do Brasil para todos!
Fashion industries must be ban.
LMAO! Cearly those lab people know nothing about screenprinting.
I was getting rid of cured plastusol ink on tshirts 10 years ago and that was not new
Ну так утилизация тканей - это очень старая отрасль промышленности. Вон в Нидерландах этим очень и очень давно занимаются.
Where is the girl in the video from? I think here accent is adorable! ❤️
Wow amazing
bbc's recycling process is expensive
So, it's not really saving t-shirts from the landfill if the t-shirt is worn out, (threadbare; full of snags & holes), it's still going to the landfill. This is bogus for their 'claim of saving t-shirts from the landfill'. *BOGUS* Very disappointing. Very.

What a first world problem. You could wear old T-shirt with any symbols at home or sleep with it on, and then use it for wiping dust, and after its useful life throw it in a heating furnace. So instead of producing new cotton fabric, they will now make chemicals.
Burning the old T-shirts might be illegal under environmental laws, and the chemicals in the designs could become pollutants once burned and released to the atmosphere.
Sure, but you have one t-shirt a month or less, not a truckful of them. It will return to environment anyway if you wore it to dust or wiped floors with it. The chemicals can't be so bad if they are meant to be touched, or rinsed in hot water.
@@j7ndominica051 many chemicals are perfectly safe in T-shirt designs but when burned, release toxic gases. Most first-world counties have abolished waste incinerators or are phasing them out because it’s not possible to filter out things that would release toxins.
Happy English 🇵🇰
Remember Afghanistan 🇦🇫 please 🇦🇫.
Ban on Primark would reduce clothing landfills
Hmmm 🤔
What an idiotic idea
Hii
That is fanastics
Stop buying cheap clothes. Buy something nice and wear it. Tell the post office to stop filling our landfills with catalogs that we never requested or purchased anything from them. Wasteful.
Wokeness most be stopped

Today I wake up to three new video uploads on YT from Bloomberg Markets and Finance. One of which is 'breaking news' about the US senate doing something with a bill about gay marriage.
I leave the house and go to the cash machine. I stand through three adverts about Barclays corporate commitments for domestic abuse, diversity and climate before I'm allowed my money.
I walk into Waitrose and I'm immediately greeted with a huge rainbow and statement about their commitment to LGBTQ issues.
All I want is a BLT sandwich....
I log on the work computer and I'm greeted with emails informing me the 'we are beginning 16 days of activism' about violence towards females and an invitation to an event about gaslighting.
All this before 9am.
I guess this is my life now....
They just send second-hand to the poor countries
A lot of faffing around, just stop buying unnecessary new clothing.
Stop making so much plastic in clothing.
Hii
Stop making so much plastic in clothing.
