The final conference in Spain of the REWAFT project was a great success!

On 24 September 2024, at the UPV Alcoy Campus, the Final Conference of the REWAFT Project brought together industry leaders, experts and companies from the textile sector to explore and discuss sustainable solutions aimed at reducing the water footprint.
Organised by the REWAFT Project in collaboration with the Life Anhidra Project, this event focused on presenting the results of the REWAFT Project, showing the water footprint calculation tool developed, the specialised seminars and the MOOC designed to help students and professionals in the textile industry to improve water consumption management.
In addition, there was the participation of managers and technicians from national and European sustainability projects, covering water reuse and circular economy initiatives. These inspiring presentations highlighted ongoing sustainability efforts and provided valuable insights into cutting-edge innovations.
ATEVAL (Asociación de Empresarios Textiles de la Comunidad Valenciana) also spoke, sharing exciting new projects that present significant opportunities for textile companies looking to adopt sustainable practices.
The companies Aquaclean Group and CareApplications®, who have collaborated with the Rewaft Project since the beginning, shared their experiences and discussed best practices for water management in the textile sector, offering practical ideas to overcome the challenges of the industry.
Our sincere thanks to the Life Anhidra Project for their collaboration, to all the speakers for their presentations, and to the attendees – both in person and online – for their participation and commitment to a greener and more sustainable textile industry.

Seminar for students on reduction of water footprint in the textile sector

Seminar for students on reduction of water footprint in the textile sector!

Within the framework of the REWAFT💧 Project, last Thursday 7th March, the company Care Applications presented an interesting seminar 🧑‍🏫 as part of the training programme for Higher Education students focused on the reduction of the water footprint 👣 in the textile sector.

Carmina Ferri, founder and CEO of the company, shared with the students of the Master in Textile Engineering of the Universitat Politècnica de València UPV her experience and knowledge in the development and optimisation of machinery for dyeing, washing, special finishes, for wet and dry processes in garments👖👔👚, which result in more sustainable products🌱

Care Applications®, known for its commitment to ethical and sustainable processes🌍, differentiates itself by renewing ♻️ and customizing customers’ existing machines to maximize their performance. This approach not only generates significant energy 🔋 and water 🚰 savings, but also reduces the environmental impact associated with the processes on garments in the textile industry.

We are very grateful to Carmina Ferri 🙏 for her participation in this seminar which, in addition to providing future textile industry workers with knowledge of alternative technologies for reducing water consumption 💧 and optimising wet processes, also provided an excellent opportunity for students to establish direct connections with industry professionals.
