STUDY AND IMPLEMENTATION OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND DIGITALIZATION STRATEGIES FOR THE OPTIMIZATION OF CIRCULAR ECONOMY IN THE TEXTILE SECTOR

IA4TEX

Motivation


The circular economy in the textile sector aims to replace the traditional “take, make, dispose” model with a regenerative system, promoting strategies such as durable design, repair, remanufacturing, and the recycling and reuse of textiles. Textile recycling is crucial, but its effectiveness depends on identifying and applying the appropriate methods for each type of material. A precise diagnosis is essential to optimize resources, reduce costs, ensure the quality of recycled products, improve environmental sustainability, and foster innovation.

The integration of advanced technologies, such as artificial intelligence, computer vision, and digitalization (IoT), is transforming the textile industry by enhancing material classification, optimizing processes, and enabling real-time monitoring. These tools increase efficiency, reduce costs, improve product quality, and help reduce environmental impact, supporting the transition to a more sustainable circular economy.

Objectives


The objective of the IA4TEX project is to conduct an environmental analysis to develop and implement an advanced diagnostic system based on artificial intelligence and digitalization. This system aims to optimize the textile recycling process, thus promoting an effective transition towards a sustainable circular economy in the sector.

Expected results


  • Identification of digitalization and artificial intelligence needs in the textile sector.
  • Technological, political, social and economic context analysis.
  • Mapping of key stakeholders and competitors. 
  • Evaluation of sustainability and efficiency impact.
  • Development of an advanced diagnostic tool.
  • Definition of services offered by AITEX.
