Overview

A textile is defined as type of cloth or fabric, especially ones that have been woven[1]. ‌

Clothes and textiles that are in good condition can be donated and sold for reuse. Items that aren’t suitable to be passed onto someone else can be recycled and made into new items, such as padding for chairs and car seats, cleaning cloths and industrial blankets[2]. ‌

Macro Tonnage

The most recent information published by DEFRA [3] [4]is summarized in the pie chart below, with 175,526 tonnes of textiles generated in the UK in 2016 and is part of the broader tonnage summarized in UK Waste Tonnage:

Textile Wastes - Tonnage Reported as Generated by DEFRA in 2016

The macro numbers above do not breakdown the component elements of textiles, but the following textiles headers in the page are as handled by local authorities and as reported through WasteDataFlow (and included in this data are tonnages of carpets handled by local authorities).
