The Microfibre Consortium (TMC) is a science-led non-profit that leads the Microfibre 2030 Commitment and Roadmap, to mitigate fibre fragment loss and release from all textiles to the natural environment, through global multi-stakeholder collaboration. It is the first and only organisation solely dedicated to this issue and works on behalf of its signatory base, which comprises of brands, retailers, suppliers, researchers, laboratories and affiliated organisations.
Since 2018, TMC has worked to connect and translate deep academic research with the reality of commercial supply chain production. Driven by science, with industry change at its core, TMC addresses fibre fragmentation through interventions in design, development and manufacturing, taking a holistic approach in creating change for the lifecycle of textiles.
Within design and development, TMC’s approach is to influence root cause change. By understanding the drivers of fibre fragmentation through fabric testing, the development of practical solutions can be facilitated to address the problem at its source - the textile itself.
Within manufacturing, TMC aligns guidance across the sector to ensure clear and measurable action on managing fibre fragment loss and release in production through improvements in manufacturing processes, and wastewater management.
The work of TMC is managed by a core team of professionals that is led by CEO Dr Kelly Sheridan. Supporting the team as required, the TMC Technical Committee and TMC Advisory Group convene industry experts to provide strategic and technical guidance.
