Establishment of green design assessment system for textiles

Regarding textiles as general industrial products such as household appliance,auto and machinery and electronic articles,the author identifies the distinct environmental factors in textile′s green design project by analyzing different processes of the life-cycle of textiles,such as raw material,manufacture,packaging,transportation,use,disposal,and recycle in terms of environment,resource,energy,technology and economy.The evaluation criterions and relevant quantificational and qualitative limits are determined.An assessment system is proposed,which help designers to evaluate and make decision during green textiles designing.
