As Australia prepares for stricter textile waste regulations under the 2025 National Clothing Product Stewardship Scheme, B2B brands and manufacturers face a pressing question: How can we stay compliant while remaining cost-competitive? The answer lies in sustainable digital printing — a method that reduces waste, supports circularity, and aligns with global eco-standards. At Vivify Textiles, we combine cutting-edge digital printing technology with Australia’s largest textile production network to help brands meet these goals without sacrificing quality or affordability.
By 2025, Australia aims to recycle 80% of textile waste under its new Product Stewardship Scheme. This means:
Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR): Brands must fund recycling programs for unsold or discarded textiles.
Design Requirements: Products must use durable, recyclable materials (e.g., mono-materials like 100% organic cotton or recycled polyester).
Transparency: Supply chains must trace and report waste metrics.
Non-compliance risks fines, but sustainable digital printing offers a proactive solution.
Unlike traditional screen printing, which wastes up to 30% of fabric due to setup errors and overproduction, digital printing:
Reduces Waste: Print-on-demand capabilities minimize excess inventory.
Uses Eco-Friendly Inks: Water-based, OEKO-TEX® certified pigments eliminate harmful chemicals.
Supports Circularity: Prints on recyclable fabrics like 100% recycled PET or GOTS-certified organic cotton.
For international brands, Vivify Textiles offers price-competitive bulk digital printing services compliant with both Australian and EU waste directives. Our domestic production hubs in Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane ensure fast turnaround times, while our global partnerships keep costs low for overseas clients.
