A recycled, sustainable fiber made from "dissolving pulp" that results from 100% textile waste, such as worn-out jeans and production scraps. This pulp is developed to make staple fibers, synthetic cellulosic fibers, viscose, lyocell, modal, and acetate filaments, among others.
Circulose® is produced through an innovative process powered by 100% renewable energy. Its recycling method transforms old clothes into a natural material that does not require other natural sources such as cotton, oil, or trees.
The development of this fiber begins with the selection of discarded textiles such as clothes that can no longer be used or resold. At this stage, priority is given to cotton textiles as they contain a lot of cellulose.
Next, the clothes are shredded, unbuttoned, de-colorized, and turned into a slurry. In addition, impurities from polyester or other plastics are extracted, so that what remains is only cellulose. Cellulose is a biodegradable organic polymer that comes from trees and other plants.
After the slurry is created, it is dried to produce the pure Circulose® sheets. They are then packed into bales, to be made into textile fibers again.
Finally, once they are processed, they can be used to create new textile-based products. All of this makes the process circular.
This fiber is soft, smooth, comfortable, and shiny. Among its properties, it is important to highlight its durability and excellent absorption capacity.
