Main themes

001

The impact of textiles on human health

From synthetic fibres to finishing chemicals, the clothes we wear interact with our bodies in ways science is only beginning to map. This session examines what the emerging evidence tells us about absorption, inflammation, hormonal disruption and long-term exposure, and what it means for an industry that has largely operated without this lens.

002

The chemical integrity of what we wear

What exactly goes into the clothes we wear? From dyes and coatings to treatments and finishes, the chemical composition of textiles raises questions that regulators, investors and consumers are increasingly unable to ignore. This session examines the liability landscape, the pace of regulatory change, and the brands and innovators already building toward a higher standard.
