The way we style our homes is becoming increasingly important to us. The market for home décor is accelerating at a fast pace and citizens are keen to keep up with the latest trends. In this webinar, we will be exploring sustainability for home textiles, looking at the key issues and challenges the sector faces.

This session covers:

• How can alternative business models apply to this sector in the same way we are seeing in the clothing industry?

• How can the sector become circular?

This guide will help retailers simplify recycling for you and your customers.
