Private View | Performance Without Toxicity at Fabrica X
Step into the future of performance wear, pioneering a clean, circular, and regenerative path forward.
Join us for a special KQ morning private view of Performance Without Toxicity at The Mills Fabrica, a bold, future-focused exhibition exploring how material innovation is redefining what performance means today.
The morning will open with an introduction from one of the exhibition curators, setting the scene for the ideas and innovations on display. Guests will then be invited to explore the exhibition at their own pace, discovering pioneering materials, prototypes and garments that are demonstrating how high performance can be achieved without hidden costs to people or the planet.

Date: Wednesday 15th April
Time: 08:30 – 10:00 AM
Location: The Mills Fabrica
Performance Without Toxicity showcases 37 pioneering solutions from around the world. Spanning speculative research projects and early-stage start-ups to commercialised innovations and global brands, the exhibition explores how reimagining materials, reducing chemical intensity and prioritising longevity can deliver performance without compromise.
Through hands-on material samples, speculative prototypes, interactive installations and garments that have moved from concept to reality, visitors explore high-performance apparel defined by purpose. In this approach, advancing human potential is intrinsically linked with safeguarding human wellbeing and the health of the planet.
This private view offers the chance to experience the exhibition in a more intimate setting and connect with fellow members of the Knowledge Quarter community while exploring the next chapter of performance innovation.
