Kingpins Show 2026

Amsterdam, Netherlands


At Kingpins Show Amsterdam 2026, ER Ocean Recherche was selected to showcase its marine-based material innovations within the Jeanius Hub, curated by The Mills Fabrica, bringing new perspectives on materials and sustainability to the denim industry.

During the two-day event, Eugène Riconneaus was also invited to speak on the Rethinking Denim Chemistry panel, powered by ZDHC. From rethinking raw material sources and chemical solutions to implementation and future collaboration, the conversation explored how sustainable chemistry can help reshape the textile value chain. Yet, beyond these four dimensions, a fifth emerged: rethinking communication.

At ER Ocean Recherche, we believe that meaningful transformation cannot happen through technological breakthroughs alone. It requires a shared language between scientists, designers, manufacturers and brands, where knowledge moves freely and every voice contributes to shaping solutions. Because better chemistry begins with better conversations, and the future of denim, like the future of materials, must be built collectively.
