Circ Sustainability Actions

Patented hydrothermal recycling

Circ is pioneering the transformation of blended fabrics, especially polycotton, into high-quality recycled fibers. Their innovative hydrothermal process enables the recovery of both polyester and cotton from fabrics that are traditionally difficult to recycle, offering a scalable solution for the fashion industry’s growing sustainability challenges.

Worked with leading brands

By partnering with leading brands such as Zara, Zalando, and Allbirds, Circ integrates its recycled fibers into commercial textile collections, supporting a circular economy and reducing the environmental impact of fashion production.

Developed industrial recycling plants

Circ’s industrial-scale polycotton recycling pilot plants are in development. Once up and running, the sites will allow apparel brands and Avery Dennison to recycle mixed textile waste streams, such as polyester-cotton blends, into high-quality cellulose-based or PET-based yarns for use in apparel production.

Worked with GEA on plant design

Circ is working with GEA for the monomer recovery process part. For Circ’s unique plant design, GEA made use of all its garnered experience in process design and took it several steps further with a new design space for crystallization.

Invested in textile traceability

Avery Dennison’s digital identification technologies and atma.io product cloud platform will provide the textile composition and supply chain data needed by fashion brands using the Circ facilities to recycle their textiles.
