Existing market for recycled textiles

Low quality. Industrial applications.

Mechanically recycled yarns rarely reach performance apparel. Upspun® upgrades them with a Tex2Tex® filament backbone.

  • Low strength
  • Microplastic shedding
  • Mixed colors
  • Restricted substances
  • High pilling
  • Low productivity

How it works

Two feedstocks. One performance yarn.

  • Upspun® yarns are available in up to 100% recycled content and can combine Tex2Tex®, mechanically recycled fibers or other common fiber inputs.
