A new report by Acatech, the German Academy of Science and Engineering, highlights the transformative potential of digital technologies in creating a sustainable, circular economy for the textile industry.
Entitled Digital Enablers of the Circular Economy, the study explores how tools from blockchain to AI can track products throughout their lifecycle, from production to disposal. This data-driven approach, the report suggests, can significantly improve resource efficiency, minimise waste and pave the way for innovative recycling processes.
