SENSATION in Denkendorf: 4.2 million euros for textile recycling REVOlution!
INCREDIBLE in the fight against shocking textile waste! In the tranquil town of Denkendorf, where... German Institute for Textile and Fiber Research (DITF) carries out his innovative research, a sensational revolution is currently being started! The mountain of waste made from old clothes is reaching catastrophic proportions, but the DITF now wants to put an end to this situation with a record investment of over 4.2 million euros! What is shocking is the fact that only a small proportion of used textiles are recycled worldwide, which led to enormous mountains of waste in 2015. Where is this supposed to end?
The current recycling rate for used textiles is so miserably low that it takes your breath away. A study by the Boston Consulting Group shows that only a tiny fraction of old clothes are suitable for high-quality applications! But the DITF won't give up because they have great ideas! An enormously large project to develop high-performance fiber composite structures made from recycled high-performance fibers such as carbon and glass fibers seems to be the solution!
The TOP 3 MOST SHOCKING facts!
- 1. 4,2 Millionen Euro fließen in die Forschung zur Bekämpfung von Textilmüll!
- 2. Aktuelle Recyclingquote bei Alttextilien ist erschreckend niedrig!
- 3. DITF ist das größte Textilforschungszentrum in Europa!
In the next two years, the DITF will develop a completely new process chain that will make it possible to produce highly oriented semi-finished products from recycled materials! Incredible, right? The new center for high-performance fiber composite structures (HiPerReF) will be groundbreaking, not just for Germany, but for the whole world! The development of high-quality yarns from classic textile waste is driven forward by an intelligent combination of mechanical, physical and chemical processes!
How can this happen? The secret lies in the clever interaction of all the machines that produce composite plastics with a fiber content of over 45 percent! Who would have thought that such treasures could be developed from old textile waste? And the best thing: All technological developments are carefully examined from the perspective of economic efficiency and sustainability, so that the results are convincing both ecologically and economically!
The DITF is working hard to transform conventional textile waste into valuable resources, thereby setting standards for a productive textile circular economy! Will they manage to revolutionize the catastrophic state of global textile waste? The world is looking forward to Denkendorf, the heart of this SHOCKING mission!
