The Textile District Day, the two-day event that brought together the main players in the textile sector in Prato to discuss strategies, visions, and future trajectories towards a more sustainable industry, ended successfully.
Next Technology Tecnotessile actively participated in the proceedings, bringing its contribution on innovation, ecodesign, and sustainable transition. Enrico Venturini moderated one of the sessions, stimulating dialogue between companies, public bodies, and research centers. The discussion highlighted the challenges that await the district’s companies and opened a debate on the opportunities offered by ecodesign to drive change.
During the event, the ECO Design Strategies document was presented, developed by NTT as part of the European REGIO-GREENTEX project, which proposes operational approaches for integrating ecodesign principles into production processes in the textile sector.
The Prato textile district continues to stand out thanks to three key elements that constitute its historical strength: innovation, collaboration, and flexibility.
Participation in moments of discussion like this confirms the centrality of our territory in the transition towards a circular and competitive textile system.
We thank the Municipality of Prato for the invitation and for having valorised the experience and skills acquired by Next Technology Tecnotessile in the field of sustainable innovation.
