The topic of the next VDMA webtalk will be Material efficiency and fibre recycling in textile spinning: Approaches for circular economy.

The first VDMA technology webtalk in 2021 is scheduled for 21 January, from 2.00pm - 4.00pm (CET). The topic will be Material efficiency and fibre recycling in textile spinning: Approaches for circular economy.

Experts will give an overview of the recycling processes that can turn old clothing into high-quality yarns and fabrics.

The presenters and their topics are:

Dr. Bettina Temath, Truetzschler Group will demonstrate how production waste from spinning preparation can be recycled. She will also present solutions to process recycled fibres made from postconsumer textile waste and explain how the best possible quality can be achieved.

Title of the presentation: From waste to value: Recycling processes in spinning preparation

René Bucken, Saurer Group: "The use of regenerated fibres increases the share of short fibres in the sliver which tends to decrease spinning mill efficiency. Saurer offers solutions for different materials and fibre compositions in order to optimize spinning for all kinds of fibres."
