As SCAP 2020 ends, Textiles 2030 takes over. Textiles 2030 will launch in April 2021 and aims to accelerate the fashion industry’s move away from our current ‘take, make, use, throw’ model towards a circular system. In this system clothes are used for longer, are re-used and recycled fibres are used to create new products whilst carbon and water impacts are reduced.
