What an inspiring two days at Kingpins Amsterdam! 👖✨ Together with OEKO-TEX® and the ZDHC Roadmap to Zero Programme, we had the pleasure of connecting with industry peers, sharing insights, and driving conversations around sustainable chemical management in denim. 📸 Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth — your engagement and enthusiasm made it all the more meaningful. A highlight for us was the collaborative workshop, where we dove into the power of data-driven approaches in chemical management. From brands to suppliers and certifiers, the energy and openness to work together for a safer, more transparent value chain was truly encouraging. Let’s keep the momentum going — here’s to continued innovation and partnership for a cleaner denim future! #KingpinsAmsterdam #ChemicalManagement #Sustainability #OEKOTEX #ZDHC #DenimIndustry #DataDriven

🎉 Celebrating a Decade of Trust, Transparency & Sustainability 🎉 In 2015, OEKO-TEX® MADE IN GREEN launched with a bold mission: combine product safety, sustainable production, and full supply chain transparency into one powerful label. Now, 10 years later, MADE IN GREEN has become a global benchmark for responsible textile production 🌱 We sat down with Adrian Meili, Group Product Manager at TESTEX, to look back at the journey—from the very first label to 10,000+ issued worldwide—and ahead to the future of sustainable labelling, including carbon and water footprint tracking, deeper supply chain coverage, and more. 🔗 Read the full story and discover how MADE IN GREEN is shaping the next decade of sustainability in textiles: https://lnkd.in/dC6rqjy8 🎉 Celebrating a Remarkable Career Milestone 🎉 After an incredible 34 years with TESTEX, we bid a heartfelt farewell to Adrian Meili as he embarks on a well-deserved retirement. His dedication, passion, commitment, and many contributions have played a meaningful role in our company’s journey and helped foster the supportive culture we value today. More than just a colleague, he’s been someone we’ve looked up to — a steady presence and a respected professional. While we’ll certainly miss Adrian's presence in our day-to-day, we’re excited for all the adventures and joy that this next chapter will bring. Thank you for everything — your legacy will continue to inspire us for many years to come. Wishing you a retirement filled with happiness, good health, and all the things you love most!

🐰 CIRCULARITY test failed! Our chocolate bunny did well – but unfortunately not well enough: 🐇 DURABILITY – broke (or was eaten) faster than expected 🧩 REPAIRABILITY – no chance (once bitten, that was it) ♻️ RECYCLABILITY – at least the gold foil was impressive 💪 Our conclusion: sweet, but not circular 🍫 Starting next week, we will once again focus entirely on what we do best: testing textiles. TESTEX wishes you a delicious, sustainable and happy Easter! 🌼🐣 #CIRCULARITY #sustainability #chocolatebunnyinthelab #Easter

Some highlights from the Canadian Circular Economy Summit ♻️ It’s been a busy and rewarding few days at the event, with great conversations and a lot of interest at our booth! With Lucy Murphy we had the opportunity to exhibit and also take part in a panel discussion alongside the Ellen MacArthur Foundation and EON, titled “Driving Circularity: Exploring ESPR, Digital Product Passports and Circular Design Certifications.” To top it off, we co-hosted a workshop called “Designing for Circularity” where we proudly unveiled the TESTEX CIRCULARITY and Arc'teryx Equipment ARC’TERYX collaboration. Grateful for the engagement, ideas, and energy from everyone involved. The momentum behind circular design is growing—and we’re excited to be part of the journey. #CircularEconomy #Sustainability #DesigningForCircularity #Innovation #Textiles #DigitalProductPassport #TESTEX #Arcteryx
