Recyc'Elit offers a groundbreaking solution for recycling complex polyester blends in textiles, addressing one of the industry's most challenging waste streams. This innovative process effectively separates and recovers polyester from mixed-material fabrics that traditionally end up in landfills or are incinerated, including those containing elastane, cotton and other fibre combinations. Utilising a patented, low-impact chemical process, Recyc'Elit transforms these difficult-to-recycle textiles into high-quality recycled polyester that meets industry standards for new textiles production (closed-loop). Additionally, all co-materials are recovered and made ready for recycling in other streams. Thus, the solution is fully circular.
