An alternative for end-of-life textiles

This technology was developed in 2014 at the initiative of the British government by various knowledge institutes and progressive sustainable companies. The aim was to create a solution for end-of-life textiles and to avoid the environmental pollution when it comes to further waste processing. This in addition to the useless and costly waste of raw materials. Wear2 ®  Ecostitching makes it possible to separate various textiles types and accessories from each other within just 60 seconds, without damaging the materials. The possibility of upcycling will be increased by creating mono-flows.

Wear2 ®  Ecostitching uses Wear2 ®  Thread combined with microwave technology. Wear2 ®  Thread is an innovative, patented sewing thread that consists of recycled polyester in combination with an innovative core composition partly consisting of Copper Sulfide. These yarns can be used in a garment in exactly the same way as regular yarns. Microwave technology breaks the core of the yarn, guaranteeing complete disassembly at the end of its life. This technology makes the disassembly of clothing less labor intensive, guarantees large volumes and makes the processing process considerably cheaper.
