Conference

Discovering the Environmental and Socioeconomic Impact of Post-Consumer Textile Waste with the Experts at Anglia Ruskin University

ARU seized the opportunity to invite keynote speakers to their upcoming forum titled, Sustainable Value Creation through the Network of Circular Textile Supply Chain Stakeholders to discuss challenges, share ideas, and design interdisciplinary strategies for a circular textile supply chain.

To achieve a sustainable circular textile supply chain and address the environmental and socioeconomic impacts of post-consumer textile waste, a collaboration between stakeholders is critical. The collaboration includes a wide range of stakeholders, such as charities, intermediaries, retailers, textile suppliers, manufacturers, recyclers, individual donors, policy makers, and environmental researchers. 

Acknowledging the urgency for stakeholders from various disciplines to discuss challenges, share ideas, and design interdisciplinary strategies for a circular textile supply chain, Anglia Ruskin University (ARU) did not sit still. As a notable university, ARU seized the opportunity to invite keynote speakers to their upcoming forum titled, Sustainable Value Creation through the Network of Circular Textile Supply Chain Stakeholders.

This forum provides an opportunity for Alchemie Technology to showcase our groundbreaking lab system, Discovery. Designed as a cost-effective solution, Discovery mirrors the functionality of our low carbon digital textile dyeing production, Endeavour, offering hands-on experience with our advanced digital liquid application technology.

Through Discovery, attendees have the opportunity to experience Endeavour’s expanded capabilities firsthand and grasp the environmental benefits it offers. Endeavour offers carbon footprint reduction by up to 85%, elimination of water usage by up to 95% and reduction of chemical usage by up to 30%.
