How Reju Is Turning Polyester Textile Waste Into New Materials
Reported byOutside ↗·Sourced by Goodlede
Reju, a Paris-based company backed by Technip Energies and founded in 2023, has developed a chemical recycling process at its Frankfurt pilot facility that separates polyester from blended fabrics and breaks it down into pure polyester pellets that can be spun into yarn and woven into new high-quality fabric for outdoor gear.
The facility is still in the pilot phase; the company's long-term goal is to partner with brands like Under Armour and The North Face to scale production.
