Let's grow a greener future together.   In a world full of social and environmental challenges, once again Novatex wants to leave a positive trace standing out for its inspiring contribution to the cause. We believe that it is possible to generate positive impacting solutions, if we start from small responsible actions and aim at major systemic goals. The company has recently decided to foster biodiversity by planting a Novatex Forest in different rural territories where reforestation can unleash an array of significant effects, from reducing carbon footprint to supporting local communities. The Novatex Forest originates as part of a multi-year reforestation project carried out by Treedom. Currently the Novatex Forest includes 200 trees in Ghana and 200 trees in Tanzania and we are going to follow up their growth by expanding the Forest over the coming years. These actions have the intent to bring benefits to the environment, as we have a medium-long term maintenance plan for the trees we plant. Socially these operations have a remarkably positive impact on the local people involved in planting, taking care of the plants in their growth stage and, in the case of cash crops, they can be rewarded for the resources they produce. We invite you to learn more and view Novatex Forest by clicking here https://lnkd.in/df_uMbjQ, keeping  updated on the environmental impact generated by our trees

🌿 We promote sustainability in the Mediterranean textile sector with VERDEinMED! 🌿 The data is clear: every year, the European Union produces almost 13 million tonnes of textile waste, of which a significant share comes from clothing and footwear. It's time to act and reverse this trend. VERDEinMED is born, an ambitious European project that aims to reduce the mountain of textile waste in the Mediterranean area. With funding of almost 3 million euros from the EU, VERDEinMED combines the forces of 10 partners from 7 different countries, together with 15 associated entities, including research centres, companies and non-governmental organisations. The challenge is great but not impossible. It's time to change our approach to textiles, especially in the fast fashion sector, which represents one of the most polluting sectors after the fossil fuel industry. VERDEinMED wants to raise consumer awareness and promote a circular and sustainable economy for textile products in the Mediterranean region. By working together, we can make a difference. We at Gommatex have long been committed to adopting processes and technologies focused on the circular economy, in line with EU directives and strategies for sustainable and circular fabrics. We want to help create a new model of production and consumption, where modifying, repairing, exchanging, selling or donating become valid and sustainable alternatives. Choosing informed purchases and favoring the second-hand market is not only a responsible choice towards the environment, but also an act of solidarity towards workers in the textile sector. It's time to act, it's time for VERDEinMED. Join us for a more sustainable and circular textile future! #VERDEinMED #TextileSustainability #CircularEconomy #Gommatex

Sant'Andrea Novara Spa - Cognetex FIBRESPIN An Evolution in the way to Spin FIBRESPIN consists on the industrialization and commercialization of an innovative textile production machine, designed for producing spools of wool/cotton fibres. FIBRESPIN’s innovative new design includes the use of high-tech materials, an innovative electro-magnetic braking system and advanced electronic control of the whole machine. In the traditional ring spinning frames the tension of the stretched wire, resulting from the friction of the slider that snaps against the rin, is necessary to have the right twisting, compacting the cop and limiting the baloon. As the rotation speed increases, the heat generated by this friction leads to overheating that damages the yarn, burns the slider and wears the ring. For this reason, the productivity of traditional spinning frame frames is limited to the rotation of the slider on the ring. These innovations let the clients increase their production level outperforming existing machines (+52% outputs) while reducing the footprint (by 57%), and also reduces maintenance downtimes and component breakage, by introducing a disruptive new design that substitutes the traditional ring traveler, and by using high technology materials. If you want the Sant'Andrea Novara Spa - Cognetex spinning frame presentation or order Sant'Andrea Novara Spa - Cognetex equipment from us , then please contact us: e-mail: info@modernios.tech, Tel.:+37064678790, http://modernios.tech. #modernios, #technologios, #moderniostechnologijos, #textileindustry , #innovation , #technology , #creativity , #future , #economy , #markets https://lnkd.in/gmJPTS6u

❓ Have you ever wondered why recycling rates for packaging vary between different sources? 🤔 Let's delve into it together: 💡 Scope of Packaging: Different sources may consider various types of packaging in their calculations. For example, in our Italian report on ReCoRe (see link below), Eurostat covers all packaging placed on the market, while CONAI (Italian PRO) only considers household and commercial/industrial packaging. Some countries provide data solely on household packaging. 💡 Definition of Recycling: The term "recycled" can have different interpretations depending on the sources who provide the data. Some organizations or countries may define recycled material as any material that has been collected for recycling, others may only consider material that has been successfully reprocessed and transformed into new products as recycled. Additionally, there may be variations in what types of processing activities qualify as recycling, such as mechanical recycling, chemical recycling, or energy recovery. 💡 Data Collection Methods: Recycling data collection methods vary, from surveys to waste audits or official government data. These variations in methodologies can affect the accuracy of reported rates. 💡 Infrastructure and Technology: Regions with better recycling infrastructures and technology may report higher recycling rates. Access to facilities, sorting technology, and markets for recycled materials all play a role. ❕ Understanding these factors gives insight into the complexities of recycling data and helps evaluate the effectiveness of recycling programs. ❕ At our platform, we address these challenges by providing comprehensive results, including both national data and Eurostat figures. Explore our Italy country report to see it in action. https://lnkd.in/eu45gjkc

The presentation by Loris Maestri will focus on RadiciGroup's latest innovations in the European textile value chain. Solutions are designed to increase customer awareness with reliable and transparent tools.  Key aspects of the presentation will include successful best practices in LCA studies of our products, especially under the light of traceability. End consumers will be increasingly attentive to informed choices supported by easily usable data; by providing accurate results calculated through LCA methodology and deriving from a traced supply chain, companies will be able to respond to this need in a timely manner. Traceable products have a double way to ensure their history: physical traceability is boosted by the digital one, which could enable both #textile manufacturers, brands and end-users to choose the most reliable suppliers. Traceability and sustainability are fundamental tools to proceed towards the EU path to a sustainable #textile sector; together and strictly connected to the final products, they will grant reliability and support to consumers’ choices. Efforts on these topics meet the upcoming standards of European regulations and create a well-defined playing field. 63rd Dornbirn GFC 2024 & 4th Dornbirn GFC Innovation Day, 11 - 13 September, Dornbirn, Austria, Live in person & Online Programme + Information: www.dornbirn-gfc.com #fiber #circulareconomy #technology #sustainable #sustainability #fibercongress #dornbirngfc #textileindustry #fiberinnovation #circulareconomy #sustainable #sustainableagriculture #fibercongress #dornbirngfc #recycling
