LOOM Carbon and independent scientific research institute RTI International announced a strategic research collaboration. The partnership will enable the scaling of LOOM’s proprietary thermal chemical recycling platform designed to transform non-recycled and hard-to-recycle textile waste into sustainable carbon-neutral materials.
Global textile waste exceeds 92 million tons annually, with recycling rates at less than 15%. This new partnership addresses this fast-growing environmental challenge by advancing a credible pathway to textile circularity. LOOM Carbon’s process converts mixed and contaminated textiles into high value outputs that can re-enter industrial supply chains, including:
