BlockTexx‘s process separates polyester and cellulose from post-consumer textiles and clothing, providing the polyester for Erema’s technology. The Intarema FibrePro:IV system will process the polyester into recycled pellets suitable for new garment production.

BlockTexx operates its first plant in Australia with a processing capacity of 10,000 tonnes per year, with plans for a second plant of 50,000 tonnes per year. Scaling up requires a strong investment partner.
