T-REX Project partners on stage at Munich Fabric Start
This week, our consortium members Drishti Masand (adidas) and Jyotsna Gopinath (Fashion for Good) attended Munich Fabric Start to share insights from the T-REX Project.
Joined on a panel with Prof. Dr. Maike Rabe (Hochschule Niederrhein) and Annabelle Hutter (Säntis Textiles) the speakers discussed closing the loop in textiles and breaking down barriers in textile-to-textile recycling.
Some of the key recurring points in these discussions were the need for industry-wide collaboration, legislation being a powerful catalyst to change, and embracing a step-by-step transition away from the current linear model.
The urgency to reduce generation of waste and incorporating circular models was also highlighted. “This is not an expense, it’s an investment”, as Drishti Masand put it.
We continue our series of conversations with T-REX Project consortium partners. This time, we speak to Friedrich Schopf, CEO at Linz Textil Group, about the company’s role in the project and the future outlook for the textile industry.
The T-REX Project consortium is launching a collaboration with Race Against Waste in a joint mission to inspire more people to participate in the transition to a circular economy, and help beat the ever mounting issue of discarded textiles.
