♻️ Industry News - Textile-to-Textile Recycled Polyester Gains Steam A recent article by Vogue Business reports a surge in textile-to-textile recycled polyester, shifting away from plastic-bottle-derived rPET toward truly circular supply chains. Leading the charge is Syre - now in a multi-year supply partnership with Nike - bringing recycled polyester made from worn-out garments into mainstream performance apparel. Meanwhile, circular innovators like Reju (our VIP Lounge Sponsor) are scaling recycling technologies and infrastructure to turn textile waste into high-quality, reusable material. This momentum shows: textile circularity is becoming real, scalable, and market-ready. 📆 That’s why Textiles Recycling Expo USA (April 29–30 2026, Charlotte, NC) matters now more than ever. It’s your chance to meet the companies transforming polyester supply chains, discover the latest innovations, and connect with the people driving the new circular textile economy. 👇 Register for your free tickets here: https://lnkd.in/eQ7KgGWT Read the full article by Vogue Business here: https://lnkd.in/e29aDHvh #TRExpoUSA #TextileRecycling #CircularEconomy #SustainableFashion #RecycledPolyester #Syre #Nike #ReJu #CircularTextiles #Innovation #TextileIndustry
