Currently, the global textile industry is responsible for 10% of total carbon emissions.
In 2025, the EU’s Waste Framework Directive (WFD) will forbid the common practice of landfilling or incinerating textile waste which will help to address this problem but which will also mean businesses will need to review their manufacturing processes in light of the upcoming EPR regulation.
At Re-Fresh Global, we know the challenges EPR implementation will bring which include 1) compliance monitoring, 2) funding mechanisms, and 3) educating consumers on responsible disposal. We will help with these challenges and provide all of the above to our customers and even more – being already trusted by such clients as Volkswagen Group, MEAVO, SOEX and others.
Re-Fresh Global closely works with manufacturers to minimize their business costs via the use of our recycled materials and assistance in transitioning to more sustainable production practices. Our textile recycling technology creates three high-quality raw materials by upcycling waste textiles. These products are 1) bio-ethanol, 2) sanitized textile pulp and 3) nano-cellulose which are already in use by textile manufacturing companies and brands across automotive, commercial design, and construction industries.
