Polycotton Recycling

Hydrothermal process technology that separates cotton and polyester fibers from polycotton waste and returns them to the raw material stage. Circ’s process is divided into three steps. First, textile waste from various sources is collected, then sorted and mechanically resized. Second, a hydrothermal process using water, pressure, and responsible chemistry separates polyester from cotton fibers, transforming the polyester into a liquid polymer and allowing separation from the cotton residue.

Cycora® -- Generated Polyester from End-of-Life Textiles

Ambercycle specializes in recycling polyester from end-of-life textiles, aiming to create a closed-loop system where polyester can be continuously regenerated and reused. Cycora® is made by breaking polyester textiles into their essential components into a series of reactors. Once separated into base materials, additives such as dyes and finishes are removed further to purify the raw material at the molecular level. The purified regenerated PET is reconstructed into virgin-grade pellets and can be seamlessly integrated into existing supply chains.
