Amsterdam is taking a bold step forward in the transformation of the textile industry. With the launch of the TextielHUB, the city is creating a collaborative space where textile innovators, entrepreneurs, and changemakers can work together to build a more circular future. As circularity gains momentum across industries, initiatives like the TextielHUB signal a growing commitment to sustainable innovation and local collaboration.
The TextielHUB will serve as a physical and creative space dedicated to the research, design, and development of circular textile solutions. This space is more than just a workspace—it is a community hub where businesses, researchers, and policymakers can come together to explore new ways of thinking about textiles and materials.
For organisations focused on transforming the textile industry, the TextielHUB offers a unique opportunity to connect with like-minded innovators, share knowledge, and access the tools and support needed to scale circular solutions. From new material development to textile recycling technologies and business model innovation, the Hub will play a central role in accelerating the shift toward circularity.
One of the highlights of this exciting launch is the open house event on April 8. Attendees will have the chance to explore the space, meet the teams behind the initiative, and engage in insightful discussions with circular economy experts. Circular Innovations’ CEO and co-founder, Nout Knabben, will join a panel discussion alongside other thought leaders in the field. The panel will delve into key challenges and opportunities within the circular textiles landscape, sharing practical insights from their respective areas of expertise.The event is designed for anyone with an interest in circular textiles, whether you are an entrepreneur, sustainability consultant, academic, or policymaker. It’s a chance to get inspired, find collaboration opportunities, and understand how initiatives like the TextielHUB can help bring innovative solutions to life.
Circular Innovations is proud to support and be part of this important milestone. As a company committed to making circularity practical and profitable for organisations, we believe that collaboration and infrastructure like the TextielHUB are essential to building scalable, long-term impact.
