But a Belgian start up has the technology to change this

THE OLBIOS TEAM

Resortecs (from REcycling, SORting, TEChnologieS) — is a Brussels-based startup that aims to make recycling of large quantities of fashion easier. The company drives the circular economy in fashion with globally patented heat-dissolvable sewing threads and thermal disassembly systems that make it possible to recycle up to 90% of the original fabric material. Through targeted innovations in the way clothes are assembled and disassembled, Resortecs solutions empower fashion and workwear brands to rise to today’s environmental challenges at the pace and scale the earth needs.

The project represents the technology, method, and commitment to achieving full circularity in the textile and fashion industries. Today, only 1% of textiles are effectively recycled. Therefore, Resortecs’ mission is clear: make recycling easy and actionable for fashion brands, recyclers and all supply chain partners through innovative design-for-disassembly technology.
