How can Europe become water resilient? 💧

It takes more than strategy. It takes solutions that work in the real world.

At IFAT Munich 2026, voices from the European Commission, SeaMoreTech and CellX Biosolutions showed how policy, water reuse, resource recovery and new approaches to PFAS can come together.

This is Part 3 of our three-part series “Water Under Pressure. Solutions in Sight.”

What happens when different perspectives come together to make textile circularity work in practice?

Ahead of the joint IFAT Munich and PERFORMANCE DAYS session, Lisa Oelze, responsible for the IFAT Munich Cross-Industry Sessions, and Anna Schuster, Head of Sustainability at PERFORMANCE DAYS, discussed why cross-industry dialogue is essential for textile collection, sorting and recycling.

This discussion will continue with Jelica Ramirez from Retexloop in Consulting & Project Management, Tom Vöge, Policy Director at PRO Circularity Alliance, Vincent Djen, Partner at China Textile Recycling, and Cveta Majtanovic, Corporate Business Developer at Rematrix.

Water needs data.

We collect data everywhere - yet we still know too little about what is happening in our water systems.

The response: better visibility, a more digitized water sector and smarter use of AI and machine learning.

At IFAT Munich 2026, experts from Siemens, Xylem and Pluvion shared how data can help us manage water more intelligently.

This is Part 2 of our three-part series “Water Under Pressure. Solutions in Sight.”

Next up: How can Europe become water resilient?

Water is becoming scarcer. So what needs to change? 💧

Across Europe, hot summers, drought, declining water availability, and more frequent extreme weather events are putting increasing pressure on water systems.

One part of the answer is already clear: we need to use the water we have more efficiently, keep it in circulation, and make better use of its potential for reuse.

At IFAT Munich 2026, Christian Sadleder of STRABAG, Gunther Schwarz of Siemens, and Hayati Yarkadas of Xylem shared their perspectives—from recognizing water as a critical resource to closing the loop and making better use of treated water.

This is Part 1 of our three-part series “Water Under Pressure. Solutions in Sight.”

Stay tuned for Part 2: Why Water Needs Data.

What does it take to make textile circularity work in practice?

Lisa Oelze and Jelica Ramirez brought two perspectives to one of the key questions shaping the textile industry: how can the systems for collection, sorting and recycling be built and financed?

Recorded at IFAT Munich for Circularity.fm, their discussion touched on the role of Extended Producer Responsibility, the open questions around its implementation in Germany and why brands should already start preparing.

Lisa Oelze brings the IFAT perspective and highlights the role of cross-industry exchange. Jelica Ramirez brings practical insights from the textile supply chain and producer-responsibility systems.

The conversation continues at PERFORMANCE DAYS with the IFAT Munich Cross-Industry Session:
“EPR, Collection, and Sorting: Insights on Legislation Across the World”
The session will bring together Jelica Ramirez, Tom Vöge and Vincent Djen.

Circularity is a must, but why?

At the IFAT Munich Startup Area, Dr. Sebastian Beblawy from EveryCarbon, Sofia Delgado from SEAMORETECH and Dr. Estelle Clerc from CellX Biosolutions demonstrated how circular technologies can turn overlooked resources into new value, from domestic feedstocks and material recovery to nature-based solutions for removing pollutants.

Because circularity is not only an environmental necessity. It is also an opportunity to build more resilient industries.

Where do you see the greatest untapped potential for turning waste into value?

How would you end the sentence “Circularity is a must, because…”?

That’s what we asked the participants of the IFAT Munich Startup Area. Filip Kuzminski from Enodo Robotics, Katja Wagner from TURNS circular system and Phillip Grimm from Pluvion shared why circular solutions are essential, from transforming the textile industry to protecting water resources and advancing intelligent waste sorting.

Their message is clear: change cannot wait.

What will it take to move circular solutions from ambition to action?

Important Update: IFAT Saudi Arabia is scheduled to take place from September 4 to 6, 2027, at the Riyadh Front Exhibition and Conference Center. The decision to reschedule was made thoughtfully, in close consultation with the National Center for Waste Management (MWAN), the event’s Founding and Strategic Partner, as well as our local partners, key clients, stakeholders and exhibitors

This adjustment aims to ensure the event builds seamlessly on the success of its inaugural edition in January 2026 and creates optimal conditions for exhibitors, visitors, speakers, and our delegates community.

We look forward to bringing the industry together again in Riyadh in September 2027 and continuing to drive collaboration, innovation, and sustainable solutions across the region.
