TRUSTex's Draft Deliverable - Governance aspects of the DPP in the textile sector
The report addresses the data management requirements of actors in the textile sector when aligning their strategies and operations with the objectives of the 'Textile Strategy' and their implementation in the ESPR with regard to the DPP.
TRUSTex's Draft Deliverable - Regulatory Landscape Analysis Report
This document evaluates and maps the current and future regulatory framework in the EU, Member States and in third countries affecting textile waste, digitalisation, and sustainability. The Regulatory Landscape Analyse (RLA) looks into how the regulations, initiatives and strategies enable or hinder the circularity strategies. It also contains a draft list of potential SoC under ESPR regulation.
TRUSTex's Draft deliverable on Material flow and circular model analysis
The deliverable provides a structured analysis of the textile value chain and identifies key barriers and improvement pathways toward circularity. The objective is to establish a shared analytical framework for the TRUSTex project, enabling a systemic understanding of material flows, value retention opportunities and structural bottlenecks across the sector.
Understanding Industry and Education Needs in Sustainable Textiles and Fashion
IMASUS conducted two international surveys and a follow-up analysis to better understand the current needs, gaps, and opportunities in sustainable and innovative textile materials.
The goal was simple: to listen to the people shaping the future of textiles with researchers, educators, designers, entrepreneurs, and creative hubs involved and using their input to guide the development of the IMASUS open knowledge platform.
CEMTex’s Green Procurement: Medical Textiles and Sterilization Thematic Seminar
On 15 January 2026, a thematic online seminar on Green Procurement – medical textiles and sterilization brought together professionals and experts to explore how sustainability and circularity can be effectively integrated into public procurement practices. Organised within the InterregEurope CEMTex framework, the webinar focused on practical approaches and real-world insights from the field of circular and medical textiles.
TRUSTEX’s Draft Report on EPR scheme analysis
This draft report provides an analysis of textile EPR systems across eleven countries,offering a comparison of regulatory approaches, implementation challenges, and emerging best practices. If you have any comments or feedback regarding this report, please don't hesitate to reach out to the TRUSTex project coordinator Ghaya Rziga from Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology.
VERDEinMED launches Knowledge Platform
VERDEinMED’s Knowledge Platform brings together cutting-edge medical insights, expert resources, and practical tools to empower healthcare professionals and researchers worldwide.
TRUSTex's Draft Deliverable Literature Review on Socio-Economic Impacts
This consolidated deliverable brings together six literature reviews—three grey literature reviews and three systematic literature reviews. The evidence examines the socioeconomic impacts and third-country externalities associated with global textile circularity systems, with a focus on African textile reuse flows, post-consumer circularity in the EU, and sustainability transitions within global value chains.
RegioGreenTex: From Regions to a Circular Europe
This brochure summarizes pilot results, highlighting progress, impact, and scale-up opportunities, while guiding companies and regions toward collaboration and market adoption.
RegioGreenTex: Textile Circularity Guide – for a circular textile future
As part of the RegioGreenTex project, the Textile Circularity Guide outlines how textile waste can be turned into resources through circular business models, digital tools, and collaboration. It provides practical strategies, business development tools, digital solutions, and showcases successful European collaborations.
RegioGreenTex's Italian GreenTex Hub: Boosting Circularity in Textile Sector Services and Opportunities from Italian Textile Ecosystems
This deliverable is a practical guide to driving circular transformation across the textile value chain, providing tools and frameworks for companies, associations, and policymakers to scale sustainable practices effectively.
The NTT Textile Waste Sorting System
Video explaining the sorting solutions developed for textiles waste within REDOL.
Advances of REDOL automated sorting and classification technologies
This document focuses on the developments and activities carried out as part of Work Package 3 “Upgrading the management of solid urban waste streams” of REDOL project, in the period of M09 to M32. The main objective of this work was to achieve the improvement of different waste flows in REDOL value chains by designing and developing various technical and digital solutions. The targeted value chains are plastics, packaging, Construction & Demolition Waste (CDW), textiles and waste of electric and electronic equipment (WEEE). Based on that, five different technologies were developed for all the different value chains.
Advances of REDOL SUW valorisation technologies
The main objective of this deliverable is to design and test, under controlled conditions, a set of innovative recycling and valorisation prototypes for different streams of Solid Urban Waste (SUW), aiming at its inclusion in circular and symbiotic value chains. These prototypes are tailored to the specific characteristics of each waste type.
RegioGreenTex: The Circular Garment
