  • Summary

  • Welcome to a new episode of New Horizons, the podcast where we explore sustainability in the outdoor business. We are very excited to speak with Christiane Dolva Törnberg, a remarkable individual from the H&M Foundation. The philanthropic Institution is investing in research and start-up for smart future proof solutions at scale. In this episode, we dive into the challenges of textile-to-textile recycling, where textiles are taken apart to become feedstock for new apparel. This approach deviates from the prevailing norm, which primarily focuses on recycling PET bottles into polyester products. We explore the intricacies of system design, delve into the necessary mindset, and emphasize the significance of supporting startups and research in this field.
