Study: Ten levers for competitive textile-to-textile polyester recycling in Europe

A new study called “The Textile Recycling Breakthrough” has analysed textile-to-textile polyester recycling in Europe and has identified ten key levers to unlock exponential growth in polyester recycling in Europe. It also quantifies the cost gap between chemically recycled and virgin polyester, outlines policy and investment solutions and shows how Europe can scale depolymerisation nearly tenfold by 2035, thus cutting waste and emissions.
