Biosynthetics can be part of the fashion and textile industry’s journey towards a regenerative and circular future, says Textile Exchange
We need to transition away from the extraction of virgin fossil fuels but include existing preferred materials like recycled synthetics, and new areas of innovation, like biosynthetics made from natural, renewable sources such as agricultural waste, food crops, or plants
For the first time the innovation award “Cellulose Fibre Innovation of the Year” will be granted at the “2<sup>nd</sup> International Conference on Cellulose Fibres”, 2–3 February 2021, Cologne (Germany)
The conference will be held as hybrid event – as physical meeting in which an online audience also participates
Despite storm and virus warnings, 210 participants joined “1st International Conference on Cellulose Fibres” in Cologne, Germany
With 210 participants and 15 exhibitors from 26 different countries, the first conference on cellulose fibres was a great success and exceeded all expectations. The focus of the conference was on markets, technologies and sustainability – and especially alternative cellulose feedstocks.
