Existing market for recycled textiles
Low quality. Industrial applications.
Mechanically recycled yarns rarely reach performance apparel. Upspun® upgrades them with a Tex2Tex® filament backbone.
- Low strength
- Microplastic shedding
- Mixed colors
- Restricted substances
- High pilling
- Low productivity
How it works
Two feedstocks. One performance yarn.
Upspun® yarns are available in up to 100% recycled content and can combine Tex2Tex®, mechanically recycled fibers or other common fiber inputs.
