Aus der Branche

Circ and Huafon are partnering on a multi-phase textile-to-textile recycling site within Huafon’s industrial footprint in China. 
The plant will use Circ’s process for polycotton waste and recover both major material streams: recycled PTA and MEG for polyester production and recycled cellulosic pulp for new textiles.

Phase one is designed to process approximately 200 metric tonnes of textile waste per day, with additional capacity planned. Huafon will invest in the project and contribute engineering, procurement, logistics and commercial capabilities, while Circ brings its recycling technology and a network of brands, manufacturing partners and downstream customers.

Textination has previously covered Circ partnerships in China, including recycled polyester filament production with Shenghong. This project represents a distinct new development.
It concerns construction of recycling capacity itself rather than downstream yarn conversion. Circ is simultaneously developing its first industrial-scale facility in France.
