New Feature Helps Unearth Deadstock Resources
As a part of Messe Frankfurt’s efforts to further econogy—the company’s term for economy and ecology coming together for the benefit of the planet and profits—Texworld is making it easier to identify deadstock suppliers at this month’s show. Demand for deadstock is increasing because it supports a key tenet of the circular economy: waste reduction. Attendees concerned with resource efficiency can find vendors offering surplus and unused fabrics by selecting the “Deadstock Inventory Available” filter in the show’s exhibitor list. In this way, identifying deadstock textile sources has never been easier.
