Ongoing Projects

TEXMEDIN [2009-2011]
The overall aim of this project, submitted under the MED Programme, is to create a transnational cluster in order to increase the competitiveness of the textile and clothing sectors in the partners' territories by fostering the focus on quality, design and innovation to deliver high value-added products and favour the transition from traditional industry towards a new knowledge-based economic model.

EUROTEX ID [2008-2010]
The main aim of the Eurotex ID project is to set up an initial interdisciplinary activity designed to rediscover and enhance the European textile industry of the 19th and 20th century. A selection study and cataloguing of textile samples will be made, using textile archives from textile museums, and then being transformed in a digital database (Eurotex ID database), available for online consultation.
