At a gala evening during the recent Dornbirn Global Fiber Conference (GFC) in Austria from September 11-13, students from the local technical college, HTL Dornbirn, presented a fashion show demonstrating the full possibilities of 100% recycled cotton.

It was arranged by Switzerland’s Säntis Textiles and its partners Kipas, RDD Textile and Aster Tekstil, with the 100% recycled fabrics prepared via Säntis RCO100 technology.

Pieces showcased were supplied by Säntis brand partners including Tommy Hilfiger, Ecoalf and Trigema.

“It was a delight to see garments using fabrics produced with our RCO100 take over the stage in Dornbirn,” said Säntis sales manager Filipa Pereira. “The students of HTL stole the show.”
