AATCC: Shape The Textile Industry

RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, NC  — September 6, 2023 — Passion matters! Everyone interested in “an innovative, informed, and sustainable future” for the global textile community can make an impact by participating in AATCC committees. AATCC has provided standards development, testing materials, educational resources, and professional networking to the global textile industry for more than a century. And it’s all done by volunteers! Committee meetings are free and open to all who want to learn more or get involved.

Administrative Committee Meetings

AATCC members determine the direction of the association. Attend virtual Administrative Committee Meetings to learn or lead new projects for conferences, membership, education, and more. There is no fee to attend, and your input is welcome. The fall series includes a joint meeting with the ASTM D13 liaison subcommittee as well as technical committees on statistics and editorial review. Whether you are a math nerd, a language fanatic, or just a textile fan, there’s a place for you in an AATCC committee!

Research Committee Meetings

Join AATCC members and other industry stakeholders to help develop and revise standards and testing materials used around the world. Attend in person to take visit the AATCC Technical Center and labs, connect with colleagues over lunch, and more. If travel isn’t an option, you can still join meetings remotely. Meetings are open to all—no membership or fee required. Several committees will be seeking new officers for 2024. If you’re looking for leadership experience, an opportunity to boost your reputation as an expert in your field, or a way to give back to the industry, this is your chance!

The Fall 2023 Research Committee Meetings include free lunch Tuesday and Wednesday, plus a networking reception Tuesday evening. A complete schedule of meetings and events is posted online. Advance registration is appreciated to facilitate planning.

Get Involved

AATCC committee meetings are working meetings. They are also an opportunity to meet people from across industry and around the world. Whether the discussion focuses on defining sustainability or choosing the location for an upcoming conference, there is always something new to learn and room to share.
