  2. 2What is a carbon footprint?A measure of the amount of carbon dioxide produced directly or indirectly by an individual or a product.
  3. 3What PHYSICAL finishing processes are there?Brushing
    Calendering (Passing fabrics between heated rollers to give them a smooth finish)
    Laminating
  4. 4What BIOLOGICAL finishes are there?Biostoning (to give a worn look)
    Biopolishing (to soften and give a polished look)
  5. 5What CHEMICAL finishes are there?Mercerising (fabric is placed in sodium hydroxide solution so it swells and becomes more shiny, absorbent and strong)

    Bleaching
  6. 6Problems with dying and finishing processes that use lots of chemicalsIt produces lots of chemical waste
    Requires energy to drive the machinery
    Uses and contaminates large volumes of water
  7. 7Solutions to using dying and finishing process that use lots of chemicalsUse natural and cold water dyes (as they require less energy in processing) also reduce the need for very dark dyes
    Use renewable sources of energy e.g wind
    Use naturally coloured yarn (to eliminate dying processes)
    Develop finishing processes so that they do not require as much energy
    Use fabrics that already have the fabric needed e.g. lyocell is resistant to shrinking
