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.

During the seminar, experts addressed key stages of the procurement process, including:

• Strategic preparation – how to prepare for green procurement before launching a tender

• Tendering – integrating environmental and circular requirements into tender documents

• Implementation and follow-up – moving from contract to continuous improvement in practice

The recording of the seminar is now available, for those who wish to revisit the discussions or were unable to attend live.
