Planet Textiles is a new international event jointly organised by Ecotextile News, Messe Frankfurt and the Society of Dyers and Colourists. Dedicated to improving the environmental and social impact of the global textile and clothing supply chain, it is supported by leading industry organisations and international clothing retailers.
Launched on 18 March 2010 in Hong Kong alongside the Interstoff Asia Essential fabric show, which itself is becoming widely known as the place to source eco-textiles, Planet Textiles attracted leading brands and retailers such as Patagonia, adidas, Nike, Sears, Triumph International as well as giant textile mills such as Pacific Textiles, HK nonwovens and Fountain Set among many others.
Due to its inaugural success, it is hoped that Planet Textiles will be held on an annual basis alongside Messe Frankfurt trade shows - details of the next event will be published here in due course. Further information and presentation downloads from previous events can be found using the links in the left sidebar.
Typical highlights include:
- Keynote presentations about corporate social responsibility and sustainability
- Case studies from manufacturers and retailers – what are the realities of implementing sustainability?
- A networking reception – your chance to meet the other delegates
Planet Textiles offers:
- Fantastic line-up of speakers who will give real examples of their work
- Opportunity to learn from best practice and pick up practical advice
- Focus on the positive developments and changes
- Great networking and a platform for the exchange of ideas
