Greening the Textile Industry: An In-Depth Review of Eco-Printing Methods and Challenges

Key Points

Eco-printing provides significant environmental benefits by reducing water and chemical use in textile dyeing, and supports sustainable practices.
The analysis shows eco-printing faces challenges like poor color fastness and limitations in scalability, impacting its widespread adoption.
Systematic literature review following PRISMA guidelines was conducted using databases such as ScienceDirect and Scopus from 1993 to 2025.
Further research in innovative mordants and hybrid digital techniques may help overcome existing challenges in eco-printing.

Abstract

This review explores eco-printing as a sustainable alternative to conventional textile dyeing, emphasizing techniques, innovations, and limitations. A Systematic Literature Review (SLR) following PRISMA guidelines was conducted using databases like ScienceDirect, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar from 1993 to 2025. Eco-printing offers significant environmental benefits, such as reduced water and chemical use. However, challenges include weak color fastness and scalability limitations. Innovative mordants and hybrid digital approaches are potential solutions. This comprehensive study supports further research and industrial adoption of eco-printing methods in sustainable fashion.
