Challenge: The industry in general and fashion in particular needs to move towards a green and circular economy to make its viability plan in terms of commitment to the planet, society and sustainability. On this path, regulation, technological innovation and awareness are the foundations that can help build a sustainable model for the fashion sector.

With these premises, it is necessary to look for new alternatives to the way of working and materials in the textile sector that meet sustainability criteria and that guarantee adequate performance in the sector.

Project: The main objective of the CORTEX project is the generation of new eco-design solutions to make the textile sector more sustainable, new materials will be developed that can meet the needs of both the performance and sustainability of the sector, and that contribute to facilitating the recovery of textiles at the end of life of the products that are incorporated. generating new eco-design strategies and closing the circle of the life cycle of textiles.
