Blended textiles made of mixed fibres are very hard to recycle and return to the loop. The critique of Cradle-to-Cradle is that resources “get lost” in the compost. Therefore, alternative solutions are needed to get existing textiles recycled and reused.

YARN-TO-YARN® green technology is a biological molecular textile recycling process. The 100% biological enzymes cleanly separate textiles into virgin viscose, elastane and polyamide. They use enzymes to convert used clothes into raw materials for new yarn. In an endless cycle, there is no waste and everything is reused.

YARN-TO-YARN® was founded in 2020 and has its own pants use case (Seefeld.Style). The outcome still needs to determine and is analysed by YARN-TO-YARN®.
