Textiles Recycling Expo makes successful debut in Brussels
The first Textiles Recycling Expo took place in Brussels on 4-5 June 2025 and has been heralded as a landmark gathering for the industry, bringing together key stakeholders and promoting discussion, collaboration and innovation. The event attracted 126 exhibitors and 3,336 visitors from 67 countries, making it the largest ever meeting focused on textiles recycling. The audience came from across Europe and beyond, with 12% travelling from Africa, Asia and America. Attendees represented the complete supply chain, from major waste management organisations and pioneering recyclers through to textile manufacturers and leading clothing and retail brands. The latter included sustainability specialists from companies such as Aldi, Burberry, C&A, Chanel, Decathlon, Diesel, Gucci, H&M, Hermes, Ikea, Lidl, M&S, Nike, Oxfam, Patagonia, Primark, Puma, Tommy Hilfiger, Uniqlo and Zara. With leading brands, innovators, and policymakers converging under one roof, the expo emphasized the need for collaborative action to promote sustainability, adopt effective recycling technologies, and build a circular economy. Credits: Textiles Recycling Expo Aurel Ciobanu-Dordea, Director for Circular Economy at the European Commission, gave the opening presentation and remarked on both the energy of the event and the impressive technologies on display. The buzz at the expo was reflected in numerous comments on LinkedIn and social media, including attendees describing it as 'bustling, energetic and full of momentum', and as 'a breakthrough week for circular fashion'. Event Manager, Zied Chetoui said: 'We are thrilled with the overwhelming response to the first-ever Textiles Recycling Expo. The enthusiastic participation certainly demonstrates the industry's commitment to sustainability and innovation. This event has undoubtedly laid a strong foundation for the future of textile recycling and set a high standard for what we can achieve together.' The exhibition featured a global array of suppliers of cutting-edge technologies and services to increase textiles recycling rates. Highlights included live demonstrations of innovative sorting systems by Valvan and NewRetex. Credits: Textiles Recycling Expo Another popular feature was the conference theatre, which was packed out throughout the two-day event. More than 50 expert speakers discussed the latest developments in regulations, technologies, recycling projects and practical ways to increase waste recovery rates. The exhibition benefited from the widespread support of key industry associations, organisations and consortia, including ReHubs, EURATEX, Accelerating Circularity, Fedustria, Denim Deal, EuRIC and the Textile Recycling Association. Several took part in the expo's Industry Alliance Hub, which provided a lively meeting place for promoting discussion and collaboration. The Textiles Recycling Expo has not only highlighted the critical importance of recycling in the textile sector but also inspired new collaborations and initiatives aimed at creating a more sustainable future and truly reflects the exciting momentum that is building for the industry. The next Textiles Recycling Expo will take place in Charlotte, NC, USA on 29-30 April 2026, and the European event will return to Brussels Expo on 24-25 June 2026. Spaces at both exhibitions are already filling up fast.

Tesco basks in the sun as sales surge - but boss warns Labour tax hikes are fuelling inflation
Cyber security drive The boss of Tesco said cyber security was a top priority after a high-profile attack on Marks & Spencer. 'This is probably top of my inbox on a daily, weekly basis. We stay on top of cyber all the time,' said Ken Murphy. 'We have invested continuously in upgrading our cyber capabilities, because this is a moving target.' M&S was attacked over Easter by hackers who stole the data of millions of customers. It only restored online shopping this week after 46 days. The Co-op and Harrods have also recently fallen victim to cyber attacks. Recent warm weather has given Tesco a boost as shoppers snap up its picnic food and summer clothing. Britain's largest supermarket said sales in the UK rose 5.1 per cent to £12.3billion in the 13 weeks to May 24. 'The summer weather, the good weather, is definitely helpful,' said chief executive Ken Murphy. But with a supermarket price war raging, he warned the grocery market was 'intensely competitive'. And he said Labour's tax increases were fuelling inflation. 'There are definitely continued inflationary pressures on the market,' said Murphy. 'I think you've got to look at things like the impact of all the new taxation and regulatory costs on the industry.' Total sales across the Tesco business, which includes stores in Ireland and central Europe, rose 4.6 per cent to £16.4billion in the first quarter. And its market share in the UK has risen to 28 per cent as its premium range drove sales up. But Tesco stuck to profit guidance for the year of between £2.7billion and £3billion, given the fierce supermarket rivalry. 'We're seeing intense competition from all aspects of the market,' said Murphy. 'Our guidance reflects that and continues to reflect that.' In April, Murphy warned that Tesco was ready to take a £400million hit to profits this year as the competition hots up. Speaking yesterday, he said he was 'pleased' with the group's performance as it attracted new customers by matching prices at Aldi on more than 600 items. Customers are dining at home more and eating more fresh food, according to Murphy. But supermarkets and their supply chains have had to grapple with higher cost pressures in the wake of measures introduced in Chancellor Rachel Reeves's autumn Budget. A sharp increase in employer National Insurance Contributions (NICs) and a big increase in the national minimum wage have hit businesses. Retailers face a £5billion higher bill after the Budget, according to the British Retail Consortium. Tesco said it will pay an extra £235million in the current financial year as a result of the NICs hike. The supermarket announced earlier this year that it would be cutting 400 jobs and Murphy has also refused to rule out further losses. Rising commodity prices for goods such as cocoa, meat and poultry are also piling on the 'greatest pressure' to food prices, he said. The supermarket is the 'best-in-class player' in UK food, said the Royal Bank of Canada's analysts Manjari Dhar and Richard Chamberlain. 'It has done well to gain market share in recent years, but we note a step up in competitiveness by some key peers may mean that further gains are more difficult to come by,' the pair added. Garry White, chief investment commentator at Charles Stanley, said: 'Britain's largest grocer has delivered a resilient performance despite a price war initiated by Asda and waning consumer confidence.' Tesco shares rose 1.6 per cent, or 6.3p, to 391.6p yesterday.

The sport rightly has a reputation for being a pricey pastime to take up, but there are ways to cut costs.

Clubs often have other off-peak hours when it is cheaper to tee-off. Or start off with a nine-hole round rather than the full 18 to save. If you have a mobility issue, ask whether there is a reduced cost for a buggy to help you get around the course. MEMBER PERKS: Club memberships can save on costs if you start to play more regularly. The PlayMoreGolf app allows you to book rounds at more than 200 partner courses – and as part of signing up you get access to exclusive member offers and promotions.

Check sites such as Gumtree and Facebook Marketplace, as well as charity shops or car boot sales. You can also buy used balls. Search eBay and Amazon for balls that are not box fresh. PITCH & PUTT: Many big parks have mini-golf courses that you play with one club and a putter and it's a great way to get a taste for the game. The equipment is supplied and costs are normally very reasonable. Or try an indoor golf venue where you can have an evening out playing golf, with food or drinks — again all equipment is supplied and it's a novel way to enjoy the sport. 7 We reveal ways to cut the costs of playing golf Credit: Getty DJ Khaled gets golf advice from Rory McIlroy All prices on page correct at time of going to press.
