Visit to Brightfiber Textiles

Workshop
Back to agenda

Join us for an exclusive on-site visit to BrightFiber Textiles.

See firsthand how their factory is using locally sourced secondhand clothing and recycling them into new textile fibers. We’ll look at their efforts in Amsterdam and how the city’s textile waste stream could be a blueprint for large-scale recycling.

We’ll then break into groups for discussions on the barriers to scaling circularity in the industry. These roundtables protected by Chatham House rules provide an opportunity for a genuine deep dive into the key obstacles and enablers for scaling T2T recycling, as well as questions around local supply chains. This visit kicks off the conference for honest, pragmatic discussions—culminating with preconference drinks at Hotel Casa.
