In this trend report of textile innovations, you my breakdown of the latest Performance Days in Munich and Premier Vision Paris for the A/W 23/24 season. Because fashion and sports influence each other.
PERFORMANCE DAYS FOCUS TOPIC: THE JOURNEY TO CARBON NEUTRALITY
The well-known fabric fair for sports fabric and textile innovations concentrate this season on CO2 reducing technologies to reduce this huge impact on climate change. In the Focus Topic category only material and fiber manufacturers who can demonstrate a reduced carbon footprint participate.
In general, four different categories that guarantee lower CO2 emissions when applied can be distinguished:
Synthetic fibers: with variants made from recycled polyester, polyamide or polypropylene
Natural fibers such as Tencel, hemp, Naia spun fiber or recycled natural fiber variants
All fibers that refrain from the use of a chemical dyeing process, instead being spun dyed or with the use of dope dyed yarn
The fourth group is defined by those fibers that combine several variants – i.e. are dyed or recycled in an energy-saving manner or use natural fibers
