A recycled polyester innovation

Made in China by EarthProtex™

Tex2Tex™ is creating a fresh approach to recycled polyester. Utilising thermo-mechanical recycling technology, Tex2Tex™ takes polyester textile and yarn waste from pre-consumer waste, to create a new recycled polyester fibre. While traditional polyester is made of virgin fossil fuels—and most recycled polyester comes from plastic bottles—Tex2Tex™ is crafted from textile waste, a new and novel alternative for the fashion industry to embrace.
