Future Fabrics Expo 2014 - 28-30.09.14

The Sustainable Angle researches and presents high quality fashion fabrics which are produced with the intention of reducing environmental impact throughout the fashion and textiles supply chain. 

The Future Fabrics Expo showcases and promotes innovative and commercially viable fibres, fabrics and products that embody a range of sustainable principles and new technologies, sourced from suppliers and mills who demonstrate a commitment to lowering environmental impact across the textile supply chain. The expo shows more sustainable alternatives to the widely available conventional fabrics that currently dominate the market, helping fashion companies to begin diversifying their fabric base and lowering their environmental impact at the same time.

The 4th Future Fabrics Expo is taking place once again in London, in a similar format as the previous three editions, showcasing several hundred individually selected fabrics with a reduced environmental impact from a wide range of international mills. In addition, extensive background information on sustainability in fashion and textiles, and the latest textile and processing innovations will be showcased.

The Sustainable Angle will additionally present a seminar on 'building sustainabiltiy into your textile buying' on Tuesday 30th September, exploring how to assess fabrics in relation to sustainability, avoiding pitfalls when sourcing sustainably, and developments of the sustainable textiles market.

The expo will be hosted in the commercial setting of Fashion SVP, the leading fashion sourcing event (Olympia Exhibition Centre, London). Fashion SVP, established in 2011, showcases companies from full-service to CMT, able to produce ladies’, men’s and children’s wear knitted and woven collections.
