The textile care industry is transforming significantly, driven by increasing consumer demand for environmentally conscious services. Businesses are now adopting sustainable practices to reduce their environmental footprint, with one key initiative being implementing effluent treatment systems. These systems treat and recycle wastewater, preventing harmful chemicals and pollutants from contaminating local water bodies. This shift ensures compliance with regulatory standards and aligns with consumers’ growing focus on sustainability.
Leading this change in India is Bianca Clothspa, recently recognised for its commitment to sustainability at the CINET Professional Textile Care Overall Award India 2024. This marks Bianca’s second win, following its first in 2022. CINET, the global organisation for professional textile care, honours companies that excel in innovation, sustainability, and customer service.
Bianca Clothspa’s success is built on its ability to meet evolving consumer expectations while maintaining a strong commitment to eco-friendly innovation. At the award ceremony, Sachin Dewan, CEO of Bianca Clothspa, outlined the company’s strategy: “These initiatives cater to sustainability-conscious consumers. By adopting eco-friendly practices, textile care businesses not only reduce pollution but also attract environmentally aware customers.”
Under Dewan’s leadership, Bianca Clothspa has integrated sustainable practices throughout its operations, combining premium textile care with a focus on reducing waste and environmental impact. The company’s use of advanced effluent treatment systems forms part of a broader initiative to ensure that fabric care services do not harm the environment.
This growing trend reflects a wider industry movement, as textile care businesses increasingly prioritise green practices to remain competitive. What was once a value-added service has now become essential, with consumers actively seeking businesses that align with their environmental values. Bianca Clothspa’s continued national recognition underscores the importance of balancing customer expectations with responsible business practices. As consumer awareness rises, the textile care sector is expected to deepen its commitment to sustainable innovation in the years ahead. (1)
