Reju opens Regeneration Hub Zero, its first textile to textile hub, in Frankfurt, Germany
Owned by Technip Energies, a world-leading engineering and technology company, Reju is using technology invented by IBM research. Reju is creating a new circular system and infrastructure for recovering, regenerating and recirculating textile waste - at scale - starting with polyester.
The combination of expertise from the team Reju has recruited, and proficiency of Technip Energies will enable Reju to expand at an unprecedented speed and scale.
Reju will guarantee textile-to-textile traceability from textile waste that would otherwise be buried, burnt or dumped. The end product - Reju Polyester - has a 50% lower carbon footprint than virgin polyester. Reju is committed to bringing a product to market that is demonstrably cleaner and can be regenerated infinitely.
To enable this new structure, Reju is joining with upstream partners to recover, collect and sort textiles, creating a circular textile system that does not yet exist.
