At FILO64, taking place September 23-24, 2025, at Fiera Milano Rho, Hall 14, Sustainability and Networking Area, C.L.A.S.S. (Creativity Lifestyle and Sustainable Synergy) presents a new collaborative space dedicated to Responsible Innovation. This season, the focus is on advanced natural fibers, traceability, and next-generation communication, showcased in an exhibition complemented by two FILO Dialogues.

More than a stand, this open and dynamic platform connects people, materials, and ideas. It brings together research, vision, and value-driven narratives, fostering inspiration and providing practical tools for navigating sustainable innovation in textiles.

Key participants include:

  • Alliance for European Flax-Linen & Hemp
  • Bemberg™ by Asahi Kasei
  • SUPIMA®
  • Haelixa (traceability solutions)
  • The InsideOut Value System by C.L.A.S.S., promoting next-generation communication

Communicating Sustainability:
In a landscape challenged by confusion, lack of transparency, and greenwashing, rebuilding consumer trust is vital. Authentic information, grounded in measurable and real values, helps guide conscious choices while maintaining aesthetic and performance standards. Today, communicating ethics, social initiatives, traceability, environmental responsibility, circular economy practices, design, and production transparency is as crucial as the product itself.

C.L.A.S.S.’s InsideOut Value System, developed with artist Gianluca Cannizzo, translates these values into visual icons, making sustainability tangible, understandable, and engaging for consumers.

Two FILO Dialogues to Complement the Exhibition:

  • 23rd September, 3:00 PM – “The New Era of Fibres: Knowledge, Traceability, Research, and Sustainability”
    Speakers: Paolo Pezzin (Napapijri – VF Corporation), Giorgia Carissimi (Albini Next – SUPIMA®), Ettore Pellegrini (Bemberg™), Fausto Pozzi (Brunello), Letizia Scopelliti (Haelixa)
    Moderator: Giusy Bettoni, CEO & Founder, C.L.A.S.S.
  • 24th September, 10:30 AM – “InsideOut – Making Values Visible: Why Trust Is the New Luxury”
    Speakers: Giusy Bettoni (C.L.A.S.S.), Chiara Tronville (journalist), Simone and Manuela Gaslini (Filatura Astro)
    Moderator: Chiara Puglisi, SkyTG24 journalist

From September 23-24, visit the Responsible Innovation Area at FILO64 to explore fibers, technologies, and narratives shaping the future of textiles, aligned with contemporary sustainability and transparency values.
