Xpore business case

Goals

1 Reduce Resource Waste:

By 2024, Xpore is committed to using fabrics made of 100% recycled material, providing eco-friendly waterproof breathable textile solutions to the market.

2 Recycle All Garments:

The final goal is to recycle all the garments and use this material to produce another garment.

Circular economy

Xpore collects and recycles the electronics waste and medical waste from BenQ’s group companies. With this waste Xpore creates raw material for fabrics and membranes. Now this is step one, step two is the waste which Xpore creates. The waste of Xpore textiles are recycled to produce packaging materials for the electronics industry they work with.This creates a circular system which minimizes the waste flow. This is an ongoing project with the top priority of their advanced R&D team. We will share the good news with the public once it has been perfectly achieved!

Certificates

Xpore received different certificates to show their quality and way of working. The following certificates are obtained by Xpore to show their quality of work: Bluesign, TAF, OEKO-TEX®Standard 100 and GRS.

• Bluesign is a sustainability and safety standard of the textile and similar industries with stringent criteria. 
• The laboratory testing equipment is state of the art and complies with strict international standards, as per the Taiwan Accreditation Foundation’s (TAF) third-party accreditation.
• OEKO-TEX®Standard 100 is one of the top labels for textiles tested for harmful substances.
• Global Recycle Standard(GRS) is a certificate which checks the recycled garments to make sure every garment is recycled. This certificate is destined for companies who want to monitor the social, ecological and chemical impact of their production.

Eco Friendly

Why does Xpore dare to say that it provides eco-friendly waterproof breathable textile solutions? 

First of all, no air pollutants or wastewater are produced during the production of textile. Second, the factory was designed to be a “Green Ecological Restoration Park” , which is a great habitat of bees and endangered tree frogs.

 In addition, Xpore generates solar energy by themselves to reduce CO2 emissions. Since the earth’s resources are not inexhaustible, Xpore also does as much as possible to minimize the waste of resources. 

For example, Xpore has significantly reduced electricity consumption and is dedicated to waste recycling and disposal. Xpore sets a pretty high standard of environment protection to offer eco-friendly performance textile solutions to our sustainability-conscious partners

Non toxic materials

PET (polyethylene terephthalate) belongs to the polyester family, which is also petroleum-based. To avoid the use of petrochemical raw materials and the pollution during the manufacturing process, the renewable bio-PET is produced from plants, such as sugar cane, corn, rice straw. Bio-PET reduced 25% carbon emission, in comparison to virgin polyester.
