The Playbook for Textile-to-Textile Recycling
What will it take to create a resilient, scalable textile recycling ecosystem?
Each year 100 billion new garments roll off production lines while an astonishing 92 million tons of textiles are sent to landfill. Beyond reducing production, it’s essential to close the loop on textile waste.
But creating robust, resilient, and scalable textile recycling will require interventions at each step of the textile value chain.
The ACP Playbook is a step-by-step guide on how to move into a circular business model.
We’ve worked in collaboration with every node of the textile supply chain to run trials that have been successful in creating fabrics with recycled content, both knits and wovens. We’ve collected this information into a playbook designed to help the entire industry learn from our approach – by collaborating across the value chain and piloting using the combined expertise.
The playbook highlights scalability in textile-to-textile recycling and helps one understand how to move into circular systems by finding solutions to problems that exist, and identifying gaps to see what is actionable today.
Collaboration is the only way we can get to scale. At ACP we believe that Circularity is a team sport, so join the team!
