This white paper provides a clear overview of the green and digital transformation of the European and Dutch TCLF sector. The paper outlines both opportunities and challenges, emphasising the importance of collaboration within the chain. It also shows how new legislation and data sharing, such as the Digital Product Passport, can contribute to more transparency in the production chain and a future-proof, circular system.

This report, based on the research in 'Going Eco Going Cellulose' (Saxion/ArtEZ 2017-2019) describes a design-driven, multi-stakeholder and interdisciplinary design approach and forms of co-creation, and offers insights into (newly developed) circular design principles.
This is a further development of 'Closing the Loop Design Guideline for Recycling', based on the research 'Going Circular Going Cellulose' (Saxion/ArtEZ, 2018-2020). This guideline provides practical tools for fashion and textile designers to achieve circular designs.
A pilot guide for fashion designers developed in the Closing the Loop project (ArtEZ/Saxion, 2015-2017) describing a set of design and production guidelines that contribute to closing the textile value chain and have a positive impact on consumers and the environment, with minimal environmental impact.
