Abstract
The research to a circular economy requires reducing waste because it has urgency for the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). One sector that has a high potential in implementing a circular economy in Indonesia is the textile industry. The synthetic textile industry has a large number of residual or waste materials that are harmful to humans and the environment. On the one hand, the natural dye textile industry uses main materials from plants that are environmentally friendly. In fact, the natural dye industry still produces waste both during plant cultivation and process fermentation of natural dye plants. This paper explores the circular economy potential in the natural dye textile industry of tarum (Indigofera tinctoria) from on farm to off farm. This data presents data collected through a survey, observation, and interview technique. These were analyzed using descriptive methods with observation techniques and literature studies. Results show that a circular economy concept has a potential in implementing sustainable concepts to farmers, industry, producers, and consumers so they can produce zero waste and reuse the natural dye industry by-products in order to support SDGs.
