Textile wastewater treatment generates alarmingly high levels of toxic compounds, study reveals
Textile wastewater treatment generates alarmingly high levels of toxic compounds, study reveals Lisa Lock Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Textile wastewater treatment practices inadvertently produce toxic byproducts—including chloroform and bromoform—at alarming levels that pose a clear occupational health hazard and lead to unknown environmental effects downstream, University of Massachusetts Amherst researchers have found. The study is published in the Journal of Hazardous...
Show HN: Textile – A desktop app for weaving together bits of text
Hi all,I'm excited to show off Textile, a desktop app I recently built. Textile can combine bits of text using various inputs, such as commands on your computer, the contents of your clipboard, and hard-coded strings that you provide. It lets you carefully build up and modify a dynamic string, step by step, until it's exactly how you need it.
Greetings from Porto, whose lanes are lined with colorful textiles
Linen scarves, cotton aprons and dishtowels adorn the entrances to souvenir shops, many of which are run by Bangladeshis whose home country shares Portugal's rich tradition of textile manufacturing.
Nike World Cup Uniforms Made of Recycled Textiles Won’t Solve Fashion Waste
In June, athletes from 16 countries will kick off the World Cup wearing other people’s used clothing. They’ll be sporting uniforms made from recycled fabric, potentially including a mix of scraps and old clothes. It’s the latest initiative from Nike, one of the world’s largest apparel companies, to incorporate more recycled material into the attire it makes.
5-month duty relief for cotton imports
Govt on Saturday announced a five-month duty exemption for all cotton imports into the country, aiming to cool down prices and ensure that the domestic garment and textiles industry remains in a robust state. The exemption will be available from June 1 to Oct 31, the ministry said in a notification amid demands from the industry to ensure adequate supply at reasonable cost. "The temporary duty exemption is expected to reduce input costs across the textile and apparel sector, thereby...
CapSenseBand: Sustaining Cross-Disciplinary Creativity When Stitches Must Meet Signals
Announce Type: new Abstract: Wearable sensing systems increasingly depend on textiles that are both materially wearable and electronically functional. Their design requires collaboration between textile designers, who reason through stitches, yarn behavior, and machine constraints, and interaction designers, who reason through electrodes, signal paths, and insulation. However, these forms of expertise do not easily translate across disciplinary boundaries.
The Sun and the Moon: Saatchi Gallery's ambitious new summer show turns its gaze to the sky
From a giant glowing Sun and immersive installations that can't be photographed, to ancient Arctic snow goggles and textiles inspired by the Apollo missions, the exhibition spans centuries of human imagination. From the moment early humans looked upward and tried to make sense of the sky, the sun and the moon have been at the centre of everything - faith, timekeeping, agriculture, mythology, and art. This summer, Saatchi Gallery's major new exhibition, The Sun and The Moon attempts something...
From Hanging to Standing: Fabric-Formed Catenary Arches as Scalable Concrete Building Components
arXiv:2508.08572v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Concrete is the most widely used construction material globally. Despite its versatility, it is typically poured into stiff, rectilinear formwork that restricts formal exploration and leads to considerable material waste and higher carbon output. Fabric formwork offers an alternative in which flexible textiles shape fresh concrete into structurally efficient geometries such as thin shells and catenary arches.
MAHA wants to make cotton the new beef tallow
In between beef tallow fries, raw milk, and vaccine denialism, Make America Healthy Again figureheads have set their sights on another slice of life: our clothing. "The MAHA movement doesn't stop with what we EAT - It's also about what we WEAR," Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins said in a post on X in late May. "For decades, America offshored textile jobs and allowed foreign synthetic, plastic-based materials to take over the clothing market."
Synthetic Data Generation and Vision-based Wrinkle and Keypoint Detection for Bimanual Cloth Manipulation
arXiv:2606.06292v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Robotic manipulation of textiles remains challenging because continuous deformation and self-occlusions hinder the robust visual perception required to estimate the cloth's state. To address the lack of annotated real-world data, we developed a Blender-based synthetic pipeline exporting auto-annotated keypoints, and combined manually labeled renders with real-world data to train a wrinkle detector. We present a perception framework integrating...
