đïž 7 October will center around the work of tExtended, with a focus on high-potential results across different segments of the value chain, digital tool demonstrations, and necessary pre-conditions to reducing textile waste in the EU by 80%.
đïž 8 October will focus on the Nordic-Baltic region, featuring discussions on the current state of textile circularity, a policy debate on EPR, and a conversation on future actions powered by the Nordic-Baltic Textile Transition Group.
Practical, market-ready solutions will be featured by pioneering companies like De Kringloopwinkel, Purfi, TĂȘxteis J.F.Almeida, S.A., and Cyclothe.
