Textiles Recycling Expo gets Brussels buzzing again
Expectations are high, after a very popular inaugural event, for the 2026 expo and conference. We preview the exhibitors you can meet in Brussels
Textiles Recycling Expo returns to Brussels Expo on 24 and 25 June, looking to build on the success of the inaugural event in June 2025. The first event was well received by exhibitors and the 3,300 attendees from around the world, arriving at an inflexion point in the textile industry’s transition to circular practices. The organiser AMI – which publishes TextilesLoop – is expecting more visitors at this year’s event, tracking the growth in exhibitor numbers. All the exhibiting companies and
organisations at Textiles Recycling Expo Europe are detailed in the following pages, showing the broad and deep reach of the event in the circular textile supply chain, from technology and manufacturing to materials and services. Returning exhibitors include NewRetex, Valvan, Picvisa, Pureloop, Pierret, and more, while new exhibitors joining the 2026 edition include Worn Again Technologies, Reverse Fashion, Circulose, and Brighi Technologies. This year’s Textiles Recycling Expo will run alongside the Future Fabrics Expo. Both
expos will retain their independence and visual identities while offering an elevated visitor experience, bringing together experts, innovators, brands, retailers, manufacturers, and policymakers to enable positive change, said AMI.
High-level conference The event also has an extensive conference programme, delivering high-level panel discussions alongside practical case studies, in-depth keynote sessions, and technology showcases. Anyone attending Textiles Recycling Expo 2025 will remember how popular the conference was with visitors keen to hear the views of thought leaders in brands, recyclers, start-ups and policy
groups (see the conference review in TextilesLoop Autumn 2025 edition). The 2026 speaker programme has again
been developed in collaboration with structural partner ReHubs. Key conference themes include: policy and regulation; scaling textile-to-textile recycling; collection, sorting and feedstock challenges; design for circularity; technology and innovation; collaboration across the value chain. ReHubs is a member of the Industry
Alliance Hub which returns for 2026, strengthened by the addition of new partner UKFT. Further enhancing the event experience, ReJu has joined as the official VIP Lounge Sponsor, offering a dedicated space for industry leaders to network and exchange strategic insights.
