Textile waste isn’t just a waste problem; it’s a sorting problem. ♻️
#CircleEconomy study found that only 23% of 18 tonnes of textile waste was sent for recycling.
Better sorting can keep more textiles in circulation.

12.6M tonnes of textile waste are generated in Europe every year. ♻️
Very little becomes new clothing.
Circular fashion needs more than good intentions. It’s time to build the system for circularity.

Circular fashion starts before the recycling plant. ♻️
Technology can’t fix garments that were never designed for their next life.
Design for recycling should become as standard as design for aesthetics.

Recycling technology is only part of the solution. ♻️
Without the right collection, sorting, feedstock, infrastructure, and demand, innovation can’t scale.
Build the system, and innovation can scale.

Buying less is a great start, but it won’t solve fashion’s waste crisis. ♻️
We also need to tackle the textile waste already piling up.
Waste isn’t the end. It can be the beginning.

Textile recycling needs a new approach.
Complex blends & chemical treatments make many textiles difficult to recycle.
The future isn’t just about processing waste; it’s about creating better ways to turn waste into valuable new resources. ♻️

♻️ Collecting textile waste is just the first step.
The real challenge? Turning complex textiles into valuable new materials.
Blended fibres, dyes & finishes make recycling difficult. 🧬

EU rules are pushing the industry toward a more circular future, but one question remains:
What happens to textiles at the end of their life?
At @BioFashionTech, we believe textile waste isn’t the end. It’s the beginning of a new opportunity. ♻️

The T-shirt sitting in your wardrobe has a bigger story than you think.
• 2,700L of water for one cotton T-shirt
• 19kg of textiles bought per EU citizen/year
• Only 1% becomes new clothing again
It's what happens after we throw clothes away.

Our final days in Sweden & Norway reinforced one clear takeaway: The transition to a circular economy is already happening.
We return with new partnerships and fresh inspiration. Thank you to @RVO_Nederland, @ChemistryNL, and all our hosts!

In Turku, we explored how circular chemistry moves from research to industrial reality.
From SmartChemistryPark & CH-Bioforce's pilot plant to discussions with Rester, Åbo Akademi University, Lantmännen, Svensk Plaståtervinning & RISE

It was great to represent @BioFashionTech at #TRE2026 in Brussels
The future of textile circularity isn't just about better recycling; it's about building the systems that make circularity possible, from collection and sorting to innovative recycling technologies.
