From waste to wear: experience the Circular Garment up close at Circular Textile Days
On 10 and 11 September, RegioGreenTex will be in the spotlight at Circular Textile Days in ’s-Hertogenbosch. Where a broad selection of international companies and institutes show their new sustainable, circular solutions.
The entire textile chain is present, from recycled yarn to eco-design garments, reusing materials and high-tech recycling. Groundbreaking examples of circular textile innovation will be shown at the Innovators Gallery, such as the Circular Garment shirt.
Not just a shirt, but a story of circular innovation
The centerpiece of our exhibition is the Circular Garment: a fully circular, wearable piece of clothing developed within the European collaboration RegioGreenTex. This unique shirt is made from recycled fibers - including Sasia’s mechanically recycled cotton and SaXcell fibers - and wood pulp. It proves that circularity is not just an idea, but a tangible, stylish reality. Thanks to many regions, many countries, all different steps of the value chain, this shirt proves that making a value circle is doable.
Collaboration in research and development for the textile industry
Our participation demonstrates how cooperation within RegioGreenTex - where industry, research, government, and public partners join forces – leads to innovative and scalable solutions for the textile value chain. In addition to the Circular Garment, we are also showcasing SMEs from Eastern Netherlands that are pioneering with their own circular textile solutions. Oost NL is one of the 43 RegioGreenTex partners which is funded by the European i3 Program.
Visit us on 10 and 11 September at the 1931 Congress Centre in ’s-Hertogenbosch and discover how the textile sector is working towards a circular future.
