Abstract

This chapter elaborates on the application of circular economy systems in the textile industry, which is historically influenced by seasonality effects that induce a search for circular solutions independent of environmental constraints and regulations. This chapter shows that circular economy systems can create business opportunities as well as important cannibalization effects when consumers are confronted with new and used textile goods. Hence, it highlights how the use of digital technologies can help to support the mitigation of such issues..
