Chemical textile-to-textile recycling, a patented polymer recycling process that separates, decontaminates, and extracts polyester (PET) and cellulose from mixed and end-of-life textiles, producing virgin-quality recycled PET pellets and cellulose pulp, is the field Worn Again Technologies leads, a UK-based technology-licensing company. Founded in 2005 and headquartered in Nottingham, its technology processes polycotton blends, removes dyes and contaminants, and supports a circular economy by reintroducing materials into the textile supply chain, and it has raised 30 million pounds from investors such as H&M, Kering, and Sulzer Chemtech, with a demo plant in Switzerland and R&D facilities in Nottingham. Its Textile-to-Fiber Accelerator processes 200kg batches, validated by a pilot plant handling 5kg batches.
