TEXTILE RECYCLING

Scenarios and state of the art

The ecological transition goals of the textile and fashion industry offer technology manufacturers the opportunity to include their design and production capabilities in a new global value chain. In fact, the demand of recycled material and of process management technology is expected to increase. Manufacturers of machines, systems and digital technology will have the task to develop and implement experimental instances, converting them into efficient industrial processes, allowing the textile and fashion industry to reduce the environmental impact and develop circular economy patterns.

This is the scenario that emerges from the research on “Textile Recycling, Scenarios and State of the Art” carried out by Acimit, with financial resources made available by Italian Trade Agency and Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation (MAECI) under the ITMA Milan 2023 project, aimed at supporting the participation of Italian companies in this event
