TEXTILE RECYCLING FOCUS DAY

Next-Gen Textile Recycling: Building a Viable Value Chain
24 March 2026, Mannheim, Germany
Next-Gen Textile Recycling: Building a Viable Value Chain

For the first time, the Go Circular Summit will host a full-day Textile Recycling Focus Day, supported by EURATEX. This new addition unites leading brands, recyclers, policymakers, and innovators to explore how design, regulation, and technology can drive Europe’s transition to a circular textile economy.

The summit will cover every link in the textile recycling value chain — from sorting and recycling to design and business models.

Europe’s textile sector is at a critical turning point. From 2025, all EU countries must collect textiles separately — a major milestone for circularity. Yet EPR schemes, limited infrastructure, and complex materials still hinder progress. The Focus Day will tackle these challenges, turning policy ambition into practical, scalable solutions.
Through collaboration and case studies, the Focus Day aims to accelerate Europe’s transition to a truly circular textile economy — one that learns from past challenges and builds a sustainable future for business and the planet.

KEY TOPICS

EPR for Textiles: The Coming Storm
The textile industry is on the cusp of a major transition, with EPR schemes being rolled out across Europe.
Textile Recycling Technologies: Can We Recycle Mixed Fibres and Blends?
Textiles are far more complex than plastics, with blended fibres, coatings, and dyes complicating recycling.
Fashion, Online Retail & the Circularity Dilemma
The flood of low-cost, low-quality imports undermines circularity by creating poor-quality waste streams.

While EPR can create the framework for textile recycling, the real challenge lies in building a viable market.
