Textiles

A NEW TEXTILES ECONOMY

REDESIGNING FASHION’S FUTURE

The textile industry and the products it produces are essential for comfort, safety, and practicality and enable expression of human culture. However, the way that textiles are currently made, used, and disposed of have significant environmental and social impacts. Current approaches and business models lead to waste,  pollution, and exploitation on global scales. 

Circular Economy Topics

A circular economy approach to textiles can create exciting new business models and systems that rethink the way this sector does business and ensure that clothes, fabrics, and fibres are kept within the economy and out of waste streams and landfill. Collaboration across supply chains is vital in implementing innovative design initiatives and new ways of imagining the products and the services they provide.
