Product description
Circ's textile-to-textile recycling technology revolutionizes the way the fashion industry handles polycotton waste. Through a proprietary hydrothermal process, Circ effectively separates polyester and cotton fibers from blended fabrics, enabling the regeneration of high-quality materials suitable for new textile production. This method not only diverts significant amounts of textile waste from landfills and incinerators but also reduces the need for virgin resource extraction, thereby lowering the environmental footprint of clothing manufacturing.
The regenerated fibers produced by Circ maintain the quality and performance standards required by fashion brands, making them a viable alternative to traditional materials. By integrating Circ's recycled fibers into their supply chains, companies can meet sustainability goals and respond to increasing consumer demand for eco-friendly products.
Circ's commitment to environmental stewardship is further demonstrated through its strategic partnerships with global brands and its recognition by esteemed organizations. As the company continues to scale its operations, including the development of a $500 million recycling plant in France, Circ is poised to make a substantial impact on reducing the fashion industry's environmental impact.
