Sustainability has been discussed, debated, and seen as an issue to be dealt with across virtually every continent and industry. It’s the ornery elephant in the room that many wish to speak to but are deterred by the challenging approach. It’s time we move the conversation and the industry forward by embracing the elephant.

The Model Manufacturing Facility at North Carolina State University’s Wilson College of Textiles plays a continued role in developing the textile sector of tomorrow and its leaders.
