Second SPORTSTEXTILES & Performance Days webinar airs on 17 November
The second webinar co-organised by Performance Days and Sportstextiles is scheduled for 17 November. The second edition of the ‘Performance, Reimagined’ series delves into ‘Nature, Enhanced’ this time. As demand for natural performance solutions grows, this online panel talk will dig deep into how natural and manmade cellulosic fibres can achieve the performance and durability expected in activewear. Our panel of experts has on-the-ground experience in this field.
Expert panel speakers
Carmen Danner, Director Global Business Development, AeoniQ Holding
Johannes Fürst, co-founder, The Natural Laboratory
Madalina Preda, CEO, Mover Plastic Free Sportswear
Lorenzo Rescali, CEO BYR International, developer of Solucell
Topics that will be covered:
1. From a performance perspective: what does it take to make natural or manmade cellulosic fibres perform as needed for sports apparel? What product categories are best suited to these fibres?
2. On sustainability and a fossil-free future: what role does biodegradability or the issue of microplastic pollution play in this trend? Is ‘recycled’ easier to sell than ‘plant-based’?
Plus: the role of education, T2T recycling, textile innovation, agro-industry waste and addressing consumer guilt.
