The French Senate is reviewing a proposed law addressing the environmental impact of the textile industry on June 2nd and 3rd, 2025. This legislation is anticipated by the French textile sector as a measure to combat business practices, particularly those employed by fast-fashion platforms.
Jean-François Longeot, president of the commission, Didier Mandelli, first vice-president, and Sylvie Valente le Hir, rapporteur of the proposition of law, presented the commission's position on the proposition of law aimed at reducing the environmental impact of the textile industry on Monday, June 2, 2025, at 2:00 PM.
This review is part of a broader effort in France and the EU to promote sustainability and combat the negative impacts of fast fashion. Other measures include laws banning PFAS in textiles and initiatives to promote textile recycling and reduce waste.
