Support for this festival is combined with the organisation of fashion week in Alcoy to promote the sector and encourage new talents.
With nearly two thousand attendees filling L’Hemisfèric at the City of Arts and Sciences in Valencia for two days dedicated to fashion, sustainability and innovation, the CLEC Fashion Festival 2024 culminated with exceptional reviews.
This event, which brought together leading professionals and creatives, included the presentation of the 2024 Super CLEC Awards, where the Erum Group was recognized for its firm commitment to sustainability.
Sustainability Award for the Erum Group
One of the highlights was the presentation of the Clec Superstars for Sustainability award, a recognition of the Erum Group’s more than 85 years of experience, marked by innovation in the circular economy and global sustainability. This award, presented by Antonio García, representative of the Green Capital, was collected by Mauro Díaz, legal manager of the Erum Group.
During his speech, Mauro Díaz highlighted the company’s commitment to reducing environmental impact on five continents: “We have managed to bring sustainability to the entire world. We are proud to be pioneers in this task and we thank CLEC for recognizing our efforts. This award encourages us to continue working with even more passion.”
Erum at the Elevator Pitch: Innovation and Sustainability
In addition to the recognition in sustainability, the Erum Group actively participated in the festival days through the Elevator Pitch, a platform to present business projects and trajectories. Representing Erum, Ignacio Palmer, head of communications, was in charge of presenting Erum’s business model and its evolution, the relationship with the fashion industry and its support proposal in the area of sustainability. He placed special emphasis on the Erum Group’s commitment to sustainability since its beginnings, and the hard work that the company carries out to promote its collaborative circular economy model based on reusability, repairability and recyclability, managing to offer highly durable products to the market.
This space allowed attendees to learn about how the Erum Group has evolved to become a benchmark in sustainability within various sectors, and how its circular economy model has become a standard in the global industry.
Support for the fashion sector and new designers
The Erum Group supported the festival as a sponsor, an initiative that joins the organization of the Fashion Week in Alcoy, with the aim of rethinking the traditional fashion model and adopting more responsible and sustainable practices, as well as supporting new and young entrepreneurial designers.
At Erum, we are committed to manufacturing multifunctional products designed under eco-design parameters, to increase their durability over time and consider their entire life cycle, from conception to end, optimizing their classification, reuse, repair or recycling.
This commitment to recycled materials, such as hangers and other accessories for distribution and logistics in the fashion sector, made with up to 100% recycled plastic, is a clear example of how innovation can drive change in the industry, contributing to the reduction of waste and reducing environmental impact.
The CLEC Fashion Festival 2024 not only stood out for its focus on sustainability, but also for its innovative and transgressive fashion proposal. With the participation of 22 female and 9 male models, more than 450 looks were presented over the two days. In addition to fashion, the festival featured talks, music, dance and gastronomic proposals, consolidating itself as a reference event in the Valencian Community.
This festival contributes to building a more responsible and sustainable future, of which the Erum Group is proud to be a part.
