2026 EDITION THEME
Shades of Circularity
With Shades of Circularity, Ecomondo explores circularity in the textile industry through a project developed in collaboration with Gruppo Hera and SCART – The Beautiful Side of Waste. Colour and textiles take centre stage, coming together in a striking rainbow installation that reveals a different perspective at every glance.
The artwork encourages visitors to look beyond the finished product and consider the resources behind it, the production processes involved and the industrial choices that shape its environmental impact. It also draws attention to the value of materials, responsibility across the textile value chain and the opportunities to rethink the life cycle of textile products through a more circular approach.
Textile-Focused Conferences
Designed as a spin-off of Ecomondo’s Scientific Technical Committee, the Textile Experts Board was established to deliver highly relevant, vertical workshops for the entire supply chain.
The members of the committee come from the textile sector, representing both the industrial sphere and the associative and institutional landscape.
