Addressing Sustainability in the Textile Industry with Thomas Poetz

Thomas Poetz discusses the importance of sustainability in the textile industry and the potential of digital technologies to address the challenges.

He highlights the significant water consumption and CO2 emissions associated with analogue print processes and emphasizes the potential for digital technologies to reduce water and CO2 emissions by up to 95%. Materials have a huge impact on our natural resources and we deep dive into the role of non-woven textiles in the wall covering industry and the development of sustainable materials using natural fibres.”
