Every year in the EU, 4.3 million tonnes of textile end up as landfill or are incinerated. Siptex is a new link between textile collection and high-quality recycling, and turns mixed post-consumer textiles into high quality products. Siptex – Swedish Innovation Platform for Textile Sorting – is the result of research funded by Sweden’s Innovation Agency.
Welcome to an exciting event where we will share the results of our research and discuss topics such as the EU Strategy for sustainable and circular textiles, extended producer responsibility, how the fashion industry is adjusting to a more sustainable business model, present challenges, future opportunities and much more.
Location: Svartögatan 2, Malmö, 5 min from Malmo C
