Textiles Recycling Expo Europe: Rethinking Textile Waste at Scale
Textile waste has become one of the most urgent sustainability challenges of our time. From fast fashion to complex global supply chains, the way textiles are produced, consumed, and discarded is no longer sustainable. Textiles Recycling Expo Europe was created to change that.
Taking place in Brussels on 24–25 June 2026, this free-to-attend exhibition and conference is dedicated entirely to solving the textile waste problem. The event focuses on practical solutions for recycling fabrics, clothing, footwear, fibres, and non-wovens, while creating a space for collaboration across the entire value chain.
What makes Textiles Recycling Expo Europe stand out is its systems-level approach. The event brings together recyclers, waste management experts, textile manufacturers, fibre producers, clothing brands, retailers, and technology providers. By connecting these actors in one place, the Expo helps turn innovation into real-world implementation.
