GREEN CIRCLE CHANGES TACTICS AND NOW PLAYS A TEAM GAME

With sustainability at the center of attention, the Green Circle showcase proves to be a powerful business card for the planet-friendly production and creative innovation of Portuguese ITV. A great showcase that attracted all the attention, right in the entrance hall of the MODTISSIMO.

With a new concept, in which the team logic is a great novelty, the sustainability showcase of the Portuguese textile had in this edition the largest and most representative ever, with a total of 42 coordinates, it associates a total of 90 materials from 43 companies, to which added another nine involved in the confection. Green Circle has traveled to the most important fairs and forums of the textile industry, especially in Europe. Instead of each company having a coordinate, the novelty is that the coordinates on display result from the combination of materials from different companies.

Cristina Castro, the spokesperson for CITEVE, explains that “the companies that apply now are the companies, and then a team from CITEVE and Manifesto Moda visits them to select the materials. The priority is always the sustainability aspect combined with the technical focus and the aesthetic and functional part”.

After the great attention and curiosity aroused at MODTISSIMO, the new Green Circle travels to Madrid (Momad and Interfift); followed by Munich (ISPO) in November, and Dusseldorf (Neonyt) in January, in a circuit that takes the sustainable avant-garde of textiles and fashion made in Portugal to the world.
