Dear community – the TCBL Days are back!
For 2022, the focus will be on circularity, bio-based, and inclusivity. It represents the current research direction of TCBL participation in ongoing EU-funded projects, that HEREWEAR is proudly part of.
The event consists of keynotes, debates, and workshops, to be held on different occasions, led by Wintex focusing on circular design methods and innovation hubs, HEREWEAR, on local bio-based fibres and fabrics, and shemakes on creating a gender innovation ecosystem.
Our aim is to bring the discussion on “How can a local production model with bio-based fibres and fabrics start a new bio-based value chain?”. The approach to the topic will be in the form of keynotes, presented with the first results and live stream available online on HEREWEAR YouTube and Facebook, TCBL Facebook.
Also, in the afternoon, the in-person attendees will have the opportunity to join insightful workshops supported by Luma Arles and TCBL. Our goal is to encourage participants to cross their points of view, to think systemically, and to co-construct on these bases.
HEREWEAR’s keynote and workshop will take place on 23 November (save on your calendar) and will be available on our YouTube channel.
Concurrently, companies or labs will have the opportunity to present their work and the impact on the sustainable T&C industry, through the TCBL Jam networking sessions (8,15, 22, and 29 November)

Real sustainability can only be achieved through a holistic vision in which all the ingredients for sustainability come together and reinforce each other.”
