These advancements accelerate a circular economy for polyester, providing a sustainable alternative to incineration or landfill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TOMRA Textiles aims to bridge the gap in textile circularity by designing and scaling textile sorting plants. Through this partnership, TOMRA Textiles will investigate specific, practical steps to prepare post-consumer polyester waste for biorecycling in line with CARBIOS&#8217; specifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CARBIOS&#8217; biorecycling technology involves breaking down polyester fibers into their basic components using enzymes, which are then used to produce high-quality recycled PET materials such as fibers for the textile industry. The breakthrough collaboration with TOMRA will redirect the challenging PET fraction of polyester textile waste towards biorecycling, showcasing a mutual dedication to pioneering recycling solutions for a circular economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Emmanuel Ladent, CEO of CARBIOS:<\/strong> \u201cCARBIOS is taking the lead in forming an efficient value chain for textile circularity and actively engages with global industry leaders such as TOMRA to shape the future of sustainable textiles.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Vibeke Krohn, Head of TOMRA Textiles: <\/strong>\u201cThe textile industry has been optimized for cost and efficiency for centuries. Closing the gap means scaling all the elements of a circular value chain \u2013 from collection to sorting to recycling technologies. Future recycling solutions depend on reliable access to feedstock. Through the collaboration with CARBIOS we hope to stimulate further investments needed to scale textile circularity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information, please visit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomra.com\/en\/news-and-media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" label=\"https:\/\/www.tomra.com\/en\/news-and-media (opens in a new tab)\">https:\/\/www.tomra.com\/en\/news-and-media<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CARBIOS (Euronext&nbsp;Growth&nbsp;Paris: ALCRB), a pioneer in the development and industrialization of biological technologies to reinvent the life cycle of plastic and textiles, and TOMRA Textiles, a tech venture set up by sorting [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":53332,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1156],"tags":[1241,1528,867],"class_list":["post-53327","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-environmental-technology","tag-environmental","tag-environmental-tech","tag-recycling"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.8.1 -
