DCTV has collaborated with brands, retailers, manufacturers, their associations, knowledge institutes and government bodies for introducing a more circular clothing and textiles value chain in the Netherlands. The DCTV team is run by MODINT, Fashion for Good, Circle Economy, ABN-Amro, MVO Nederland and het Groene Brein.

The aim of the project is to reduce the Dutch apparel and textile’s impact on water, raw materials and climate. It includes stimulation of a more durable way to use clothing, stimulating the second hand market and improving the results of material and fibre recycling to be able to actually use a greater share of collected textiles and clothing. Concretely, the project will focus on creating projects involving fibre recycling techniques, circular design, business and brand development and corporate and workwear.
