Worn Again scaling up to ‘Accelerator’ phase
09/03/2026
The company has been refining its process and says that it can now recover 95% of solvents used.
It has announced that the first of several Accelerator modules has been delivered and installed. This element of the system recovers spinnable polyester from waste textiles, including post-consumer polycotton blends that are currently sourced from Switzerland, the EU & UK.
The next module, which the company says has “entered detailed engineering”, will turn the cellulose content of mixed textiles into pulp for next-gen manmade cellulosic fibres along “with other advanced cellulosic materials”.
“The Accelerator is a critical asset for building towards our first commercial plant,” commented sales director Toby Moss. “Testing at this scale will expand our solutions to a broader range of feedstocks, ensuring that we stay ahead by valorising more material streams and creating a growing portfolio of high-value, downstream product applications.”
