The recent ‘Sorting for Circularity Europe’ report indicates that 74% of low value, post-consumer textiles are readily available for fibre-to-fibre recycling in six European countries. This finding offers an immense opportunity to accelerate textile recycling, but still requires an integrated approach to deliver for scale.

New Consortium to Drive Closed-Loop Sorting, and Recycling of Household Textile Waste Across EU

A consortium of 12 major players from across the entire recycling value chain has launched a EU-funded project to create a circular system for post-consumer textile waste. The T-REX Project (Textile Recycling Excellence) will work to create a harmonised EU blueprint for closed-loop sorting, and recycling of household textile waste.
