2 years, 11 months agoSmart Textiles by Science Park Borås. From idea to sustainable impact
Clothes that monitor your health or measure your movements. Technology that makes it possible to recycle and reuse textile fibres. Smart textiles that revolutionize our lives.
The textile industry is about to take a giant step from being a supplier of fabrics to become a positive force in the development of society. Textile innovations improve people’s everyday lives and benefit the industry, the healthcare sector and the environment.
However, innovations do not spring from nothing. It takes an open environment where people from many different backgrounds are allowed to meet and involve in open-ended communication to find both sought-after and unexpected solutions. Smart Textiles is that innovation environment in Northern Europe. Today, the research community, the business community, institutions and the public sector come together to find the solutions of the future. As the Smart Textiles Initiative offers a complete solution including everything from basic research to prototype development, it is the natural partner for realizing textile ideas or meeting a need with textile technology.
With over 500 research and company driven projects since the foundation of the initiative in 2006, Smart Textiles has not only become a motor for the textile industry in Sweden but an important player on the international arena.
