Sustainability of E-Textiles
September 24, 2021 @ 1:30 pm - 2:30 pm
Presented by Dr Russell Torah, University of Southampton.
With an ever increasing population and the rise of consumer culture around the world there is a need for all products to be more sustainable and recyclable to reduce their environmental impact. This is particularly true with the development of e-textiles; a combination of two of the largest waste producers in the world, the textiles and electronics industry. This webinar will discuss a number of the challenges of sustainability of e-textiles including the new materials being researched, the international standards and strategies from the key players in this field.
