Successful roundtable event at Circular Textile Days 2025

15 September 2025 – On the 10th and 11th of September, we took part in the Circular Textile Days. During our matchmaking event and at our stand, we met many participants, service providers and innovation partners.

The roundtable discussions provided ample space to delve deeper into the circular challenge and to exchange ideas. Together, we explored how to accelerate the path towards circular solutions. Topics included reuse in the Netherlands, improvements in collection systems, fibre-to-fibre recycling (both mechanical and chemical), and automated sorting for recycling.

Circular Textile Days 2025 once again demonstrated the value of collaboration, new connections and knowledge sharing in driving innovation within the textile chain. With the strength of more than 1000 engaged participants, we are steadily building towards a circular future.
