FABRIX connects organizations and facilitators in the textile and clothing industry to build local, circular, and sustainable supply chains.
The FABRIX PLATFORM is currently in beta testing mode. We're focusing on the Textile and Clothing (fashion) industry in two pilot cities, Rotterdam (NL) and Athens (GR). In the future, service will expand to include other regions and industries.
FABRIX is a European Union funded project that studies how we can encourage sustainable urban manufacturing. First, mapping instances of the T&C industry in cities, we can see where manufacturing takes place and trends over time.
Then, working with local administrations, urban planners, and figures we call "Facilitators", we see if we can help businesses overcome difficulties - often related to space or human relations - through the auxiliary of a digital platform.
We imagine a city in which fashion is local and meaningful, creating connections and expressing identity. Where fast fashion is out of fashion, and waste is a resource that is utilized.
To reach this goal we seek gamechangers who want to collaborate to "map, match and make" something innovative and beautiful.
