The recycling, design and performance balance for fashion

Renee Henze, global marketing and channel development director at Dupont Biomaterials, discusses, with Ian Welsh, some of the challenges for apparel brands in developing real circularity in garments.

They talk about why customers are ever keener to buy products that have greater recyclability, and the pitfalls for business to ensure the recycling infrastructure necessary is in place. And, as Henze points out, the fact that a garment can be recycled doesn’t mean that it is.

Dupont was a sponsor of Innovation Forum's recent sustainable apparel and textiles conference.
