In the near future, textiles and garments will be labeled with carbon, green fees, greenhouse gas emission taxes ... If they want to penetrate deeply into the world market, DMVN enterprises have no other way. To update green technology trends, to compete well with new criteria.

In order to help the member enterprises realize the green technology trend, the Association of DMVN (VITAS) has organized many scientific seminars, providing useful information and solutions to make DMVN become greener. in competition.

Let's talk to Vu Duc Giang, Chairman of VITAS on this issue.

Drastic than in energy saving

According to statistics, each year Vietnam costs $ 3 billion of energy for textile production. That is one of the reasons why our products are priced higher, reducing competitiveness. So, VITAS has helped reduce the above mentioned numbers and help DMVN companies better understand, as well as take more drastic action to save energy?
VITAS has organized high scientific information events such as seminars. Especially, recently, the workshop "Branding - Sustainable textile and garment environment through energy saving solutions" attracted valuable comments from the Vietnam Textile and Apparel Association, representatives of the Agency US Development Cooperation - US Low-Carbon Energy Program - AID VLEEP, German Agency for Development Cooperation - NAMA Textile and Garment Project, high - IDH Vietnam. The speeches focused on solutions for technology, environmental management, saving energy costs in production - business, branding and garment, bringing deep and sustainable benefits. Experts in the workshop also shared the training and technical assistance programs for textile enterprises, information on financial incentives, technology innovation, energy savings and access consultancy. loans for energy saving projects.
Sir, we all know that green technology - clean - renewable energy is becoming indispensable trend, bring practical effects for businesses. But the solutions that the workshop mentioned above how to apply the company?
I highly appreciate NGOs, speakers, and the business community who are concerned about energy efficiency. In fact, the DMVN sector is facing new opportunities and challenges in the process of integration. DMVN industry has been subjected to fierce competition in the world market for product quality, production cost, delivery time, safety for consumers and especially the safety of the main Workers in the production process make products, safety for the environment, society. Therefore, business owners need to be aware of the survival of enterprises to apply new energy saving solutions into production practices, the highest environmental safety solutions. Each enterprise has its own appropriate application. During the deployment, there should be the participation of business owners, experts, suppliers and technicians in enterprises.
Green competition is a matter of survival

 According to him, the owners of DMVN after the events organized by VITAS, really consider energy saving is a vital factor for development DMVN, sustainable integration in the future or not?
Actually, business owners are very concerned about the new barriers will be formed in the near future, related to green energy. The latest sign is that at the 23rd Global Climate Change Conference in 2017, there is a fashion industry forum that brings together the top 50 fashion giants to declare energy savings and reduce emissions. greenhouse emissions, carbon labeled goods. They are committed to 2030 will have a number of sectors, the field of 100% recycling, not leaving anything. That is a sign that the DMVN companies should pay attention. Barriers to carbon labeling will soon be established in major markets such as the US, EU ... which requires the labeling of carbon on products, technological lines, factories. Buyers will have to assess the qualifying enterprises to order. Therefore, green competition must be a vital issue for enterprises.There are a number of garment enterprises in Dong Nai and Binh Duong Industrial Zones that require partners to identify in the production process a fabric, a garment, or trousers, which corresponds to the emission. how much greenhouse gas / unit of product, to publish on label. They wondered if there was any organization out there on the methodology for calculating the global standard. Does VITAS and its affiliated organizations prepare a plan to help the DMVN respond to this problem in near future?
DM TG industry is entering the stage of technology 4.0 requires the ability to invest strongly for the development of enterprises, making the difference in the process of integration, the appropriate competence, the additional requirements from the provisions of the new trade agreements. In particular, the CPTPP, FTAs ​​with Japan, South Korea, and the negotiating agreements are in preparation. This is a challenge, but it is also possible to bring great opportunities for the DMVN community. In addition, Vietnam is also committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions from now to 2030. In addition to improving the competitiveness of each company in terms of product quality (SP), SP price, delivery time, Energy saving, environmental protection will contribute to the decision that our products can penetrate the international market, especially big markets, such as the United States, the EU or not. We must find the right solution
