Circular Textile-to-Biomaterial Platform

About

BioFashionTech offers a biotech-driven circular material solution that transforms unsorted and dyed post-consumer textile waste into valuable bio-based inputs such as fermentable sugars and recovered synthetic fibres. Unlike traditional recycling methods that require clean, mono-material streams, this platform works with real mixed textile waste, unlocking a major untapped resource in the fashion and textiles value chain.

By enabling higher recovery rates with reduced energy use and lower emissions, BioFashionTech supports compliant, scalable circular systems under Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) and emerging EU sustainability regulations. The outputs can feed into new material streams, supporting manufacturers, brands, and waste operators in building resilient, low-impact supply chains.

This product drives circularity by:

  • Upcycling complex textile waste that current systems cannot process

  • Generating bio-based feedstocks and reclaimed fibres for reuse

  • Reducing environmental footprint compared to existing recycling methods

  • Aligning with EU circular and sustainability policies

BioFashionTech’s technology enables the transition from waste disposal to resource recovery — turning one of Europe’s most challenging waste streams into high-value, sustainable material inputs.
