Chemical recycling – how polyester can contribute to circularity
Can complex polyester products such as furniture, sports equipment, and technical textiles be recycled? And how can design choices made early on facilitate textile recycling? What potential future regulations might shape textile recycling?
RISE takes a holistic perspective on the circular textile value chain, offering expertise and services ranging from design for recycling to test and demo facilities for chemical, mechanical, and thermo-mechanical textile recycling.
Together with industry guests, we now invite you to the third webinar in the series “A Sustainable and Circular Textile Value Chain” to share knowledge, experiences, and concrete examples of chemical textile recycling and textile design.
