BLUEZONE & KEYHOUSE in Halls 6 & 7

In BLUEZONE, under the motto DENIMINED, everything revolves around denim and streetwear. About 100 collections from renowned weavers such as Advance Denim, Berto, Bossa, Calik Denim, Denim Authority, Evlox, ISKO, KT Trims, Maritas Denim, Monster, Naveena Denim Mills NDM, NDL, Orta, Sharabati, Strom, Tejidos Royo, and Vicunha come together under the roof of the Zenith Hall, focusing on themes like the circular economy, recycling, upcycling, and transformative processing methods. Rounded off by the DENIM DEAL unveiling the first signatories in Germany.

The Innovation Hub KEYHOUSE, under the theme TECHKNOWLEDGE, will be a stage for progressive suppliers and global players showcasing their latest developments, innovations, technologies, and solutions, particularly in terms of sustainability and technological advances. Due to renovation work in Hall 5, KEYHOUSE will be integrated into Hall 7 in September, presenting the following innovations:

Adidas will showcase an outstanding recycling project called the T-REX Project, aiming to create a closed-loop system for post-consumer textile waste. BIOTEXFUTURE TransitionLab will present three technical textile innovations: BioTurf, Light Lining, and Fungal Fibers. Fungal Fibers researches Chitosan as a promising bioplastic for the production of synthetic fibers, closely related to the second most common natural polymer, Chitin. Its remarkable properties, such as biodegradability, antibiotic characteristics (inhibiting bacterial growth), and compatibility with cotton and cellulose, make Chitosan a promising bioplastic.

Light Lining works on proving that cellulose aerogel fleeces can be a suitable alternative for insulation in sports and outdoor clothing. Various cellulose samples are dried “supercritically” in a physical drying process from sustainably produced wood to create corresponding aerogel fleeces. The samples are then treated with various additives to reduce bacterial growth or achieve hydrophobic properties before the aerogel fleeces are covered with upper and lower fabric.

BioTurf aims to develop an artificial turf structure made from bio-polyethylene (PE), which chemically does not differ significantly from petroleum-based PE. The mono-material structure should enable highquality material recycling, which is a crucial basis for moving towards a circular economy. This innovative artificial turf structure will avoid the addition of polymeric infill granulate, thus solving the current microplastic problem of artificial turf fields.
