The Future Fashion Symposium 2014 explored recent technological developments and their potential to improve the environmental performance in the textile value chain.
The outline for the symposium on 27th May included both short talks from our researchers within Mistra Future Fashion and a workshop on LCA “Hitchhikers and puzzles –all you need to know about LCA” to learn more about how to interpret LCA data. Representatives from Lenzing Fibers, Pepwing, Filippa K, I:Collect, and Re:newcell presented their solutions as input for the discussions.
