Santo Tirso brings together European partners to discuss new solutions for textile waste

SAPO Notícias31 August 2026 at 16:51

The municipality of Santo Tirso will host an International Seminar on Circular Management of Textile Waste on September 24 and 25. The event will run for two days and aims to bring together European partners to discuss solutions related to the fate of fabrics after they are no longer used.

During the seminar, various stages of the textiles journey will be analyzed, including collection, sorting, recycling, reuse and reintegration into production. The main focus will be understanding the entire life cycle of textile materials and identifying ways to reintegrate them into the production process sustainably.

The initiative comes in the context of the circular economy and aims to promote discussion among different European partners on strategies for more efficient management of textile waste. Santo Tirso, known for its textile sector, positions itself as a hub for reflection and innovation in this area.

Bioremodeling: what is the treatment that improves skin quality without altering the face contour

Bioremodeling is a facial treatment that improves skin quality without altering the face contours, unlike procedures such as fillers. The concept is based on the ability to promote tissue remodeling through cellular and biochemical stimuli, using substances such as hyaluronic acid, which is naturally present in the body and participates in processes that support tissues, helping to maintain firmness, elasticity, and skin hydration.

The secret hidden in an Antarctic meteorite: the magnetism that shaped our solar system 4600 million years ago

Primitive meteorites found in Antarctica preserve traces of an ancient magnetic field that helped transform the cloud of gas and dust that gave rise to the solar system about 4600 million years ago. An investigation by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, reveals that during the collapse of the solar nebula, magnetism may have played a much more important role than gravity in the formation of the disk of matter where the Sun and planets eventually formed.
