Abstract:

One of the key challenges facing the textile industry is how to successfully upscale the systems from micro pioneers to commercial textile upcycling. Models have been developed to act as frameworks. Disseminating this information to young designers, these have then been tested to see if appropriate techniques can be refined and protoypes developed for upscaling upycling.
