Last week, Institut Industrial de Terrassa – Gremi Tèxtil in collaboration with Leitat Technological Center and AEI Tèxtils, organized a textile circular economy networking day at Leitat’s facilities in Terrassa. The event gathered over forty attendees from different companies in the textile value chain.
In this event, the LIFE-CIRTECHTEX project was presented as one of the featured success cases, including its objective, consortium, actions and expected results and that it is funded through the LIFE Programme of the European Commission.
The event was a good opportunity to share the circular economy model that LIFE-CIRTECHTEX promotes, to recover pre- and post-consumer textile scraps resulting from the manufacturing process of personal protective equipment in order to manufacture new ones.
