Textiles Recycling Expo USA has already received widespread support from key industry players ahead of its launch on April 29-30 2026 at the Charlotte Convention Center in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Following the highly successful European launch in Brussels earlier this year, many exhibitors have committed to the US edition, eager to replicate it “across the pond”.
The growing exhibitor list features some of the industry’s most influential names including Syre, Beyond Retro, Bank & Vogue, Valerius, Circ, and Debrand.
Syre, a founding exhibitor, is particularly well aligned with the US edition, as it prepares to launch its first North Carolina plant capable of producing 10,000 metric tons of circular polyester annually.
Backed by retail giants such as H&M, Target, Gap and Houdini, Syre’s participation underscores the event’s relevance as the premier platform for textile recycling industry professionals and advancing transformation.
The launch event has already secured key sponsors, including AATCC, along with a dedicated VIP area sponsored by ReJu and a wide range of additional sponsorship opportunities are also available.
In addition to exhibitors, the expo has secured partnerships with leading associations. Accelerating Circularity will work closely with the organisers to help shape the conference programme to reflect the industry’s most pressing challenges and emerging solutions for scalable textile-to-textile recycling. Meanwhile, SMART (Secondary Materials and Recycled Textiles Association) will contribute its expertise, advocacy and networks to spotlight best practices and support industry-wide collaboration.
The impressive roster of supporters also includes the Southern Textile Association, Fashion Takes Action, North American Linen Association, Carolina Recycling Association, Waste Advantage Magazine, Ecotextile News, TextilesLoop, Denim Deal and Fashion United.
The Textiles Recycling Expo USA will be free to attend, offering access to an exhibition floor filled with pioneering technologies and services, alongside an open conference theatre featuring expert-led panels, keynote presentations and in-depth discussions. Together, these elements will create an unparalleled platform for knowledge exchange and collaboration.
