Indorama Ventures
Indorama Ventures Public Company Limited, a global leader in sustainable chemicals, proudly announces its role in the T-REX (Textile Recycling Excellence) Project. This ambitious initiative aims to create a unified EU blueprint for closed-loop sorting and recycling of household textile waste, aiding the fashion industry’s shift towards a circular and sustainable future.
As the designated spinning partner, Indorama Ventures will process chemically recycled feedstock into polyester yarns and fibers through extrusion, ensuring impurities are removed. This participation aligns with the company’s goals of promoting the circular economy and the circular fashion industry through PET recycling and providing recycled materials, highlighting its commitment to sustainability.
Mr. Diego Boeri, Executive President of Indorama Ventures’ Fibers business, stated, “Indorama Ventures has decades-long experience in manmade-fibers processes, especially in polyester. We are committed to driving sustainable solutions and using circular feedstock across the value chain to help our partners achieve their sustainability goals. We look forward to leveraging our technical expertise to contribute to the success of textile-to-textile recycling within the T-REX Project.”
The T-REX Project aims to create a harmonized blueprint to support a circular system for post-consumer textile waste in Europe. The EU-funded project brings together a consortium of 13 major players from the entire value chain and research institutes to transform end-of-use textiles from waste into valuable feedstock and commodities for new scalable business models.
