Circular Textile Days

The Circular Textile Days is a business event that offers a great opportunity for meeting new partners in the sustainable textile business and for discovering and discussing innovative circular textile solutions.

A broad selection of 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. Visitors are expected from various textile industry segments, from B2B end-users to fashion brands, retailers, educators and students.

We have a speaker line-up with interesting and representative people who are informative and inspirational to strengthen our mission of circular textile. Topics that for example might be included for the second edition are the NTA, the EPR (or UPV in Dutch), LCA's, biobased materials and the facts of recycling materials like polyester, polyamide and cotton.

Circular Textile Days aims to be the future platform for talks, discussions, presentations and sharing innovative ideas.

Improving the textile industry is obviously not something we can achieve (only) within the Dutch borders. It is important that major players within this industry also change their course.

Circular Textile Days is all about reliable information and transparency. We have the same objective when we discuss the developments in Turkey, one of the major players in the textile supply chain. Besides the fact that there's always room for improvement, we can definitely state that there is a number of excellent textile companies in Turkey that is happy to contribute to improving the sustainability of the textile industry.

‘Sustainability’ is very topical in today’s society. Various organisations are doing research and sharing their views on pollution, water usage, loss of biodiversity, social and management issues and you can find multiple disturbing reports about our climate crisis. It seems to be a hard battle for mankind at the moment.

Is there a solution for this? Well there’s no quick fix, that’s for sure. But fortunately we see many positive actions emerging. Positive vibes, because: More and more individuals and organisations, including large fashion companies, are contributing to the solution, by offering consumers more and more sustainable products.

Still we have to be aware that sustainability is not always well measurable and the positive impact of our sustainable actions varies a lot. Besides, it is often unclear to both companies and consumers, what the sustainable aspect actually means.

During the Circular Textile Days we share knowledge about sustainability and circular textiles. In this way we strive to enhance the awareness of the sustainability developments and related business opportunities. We'll do this by providing news, facts and innovative developments, based on research and development.
