Auf über 1.000 Quadrat-metern finden Sie richtungsweisende Smart Textiles, Future Fabrics und neue Technologien – sei es in Punkto Nachhaltigkeit, Kreislaufwirtschaft, Digitalisierung, Traceability, Technologie oder Finishing für die Saison Autumn.Winter 24/25.

Für das Thema Nachhaltigkeit sind normalerweise Einkauf und Produktion zuständig. Wer aber über den Einsatz von abbaubaren Stoffen hinausdenkt, kann Kosten, Materialverbrauch und Profitabilität deutlich beeinflussen. Neu daran: Der Schlüssel dazu liegt in der Hand der Kreativen.

But over time, our relationship with textiles has changed.

With all our communication we try to speak to our community in a meaningful and honest, not perfect way, showing the hard stuff, the stuff we didn’t get right, as much as we show the stuff we nailed.

How and where are our roots? How can we reconnect with deep human values and ancient knowledge and skills?

Local and recycled: Enschede Textielstad was founded in 2013 by Annemieke Koster to create responsibly produced fabrics from recycled yarns and local raw materials such as flax, hemp and wool for apparel and interior textiles.

The focus here is on circularity: it is about the recyclability of the material; a product made by Studio Sarmite can be dissolved at the end of its life and the textile fibres can be used for the next production cycle.

Bio-based, locally produced, on demand: that's MYCOTEX by NEFFA – a flexible material whose properties lie somewhere between leather, plastic and artificial leather

The textiles have the peotic power of tracing time. The changes in the colours make the ageing process visible and make transience a subject of discussion – spiritual as well as material.

When the programmers of KNITWEAR LAB teamed up with 3D software specialists, a completely new idea for more sustainable, cost-efficient and design-oriented pattern development and knitwear production emerged.

Bye bye, plastic! The long-term goal is to be able to replace virgin polyester as a raw material.

Simultaneously, they are eager to explore avenues for improving the customer journey, sustainability aspects, sourcing or design. It entails broadening their scope of responsibilities and possibilities.

The focus will be reducing hazardous chemicals, water, and energy in textile production. The industry will place greater emphasis on circular production methods and using recycled materials.

On more than 1,000 square metres you will find trend-setting Smart Textiles, Future Fabrics and new technologies - be it in terms of sustainability, circular economy, digitalisation, traceability, technology or finishing for the Autumn.Winter 24/25 season.
