In the weeks since my last post, I have shifted my focus to researching active players in Europe and beyond in the textile recycling industry - everything from collectors and sorters to companies developing new tech to facilitate the process. The goal is to create a general map of the European textile recycling sector and identify potential partners for future projects.

It has been very interesting to see the range and breadth of players in the field, from small startups using AI to sort textiles faster and more accurately to established players that have been mechanically recycling textiles for decades. At the same time, the fact that textile recycling remains such a difficult task despite the number of players already involved and the history of the industry can feel at times discouraging. It shows just how much more work there is left to do in this field.
