T-REX’s technical guidance for recyclable garments

The shift from a linear to a circular apparel industry is gaining momentum — with new technologies, consumer expectations and policies all pushing for change. To support this transition, T-REX project has released the “Technical Guidance: Designing Garments for Textile-to-Textile Recyclability.”

This guidance brings together key insights from research conducted during the T-REX project, offering practical, detailed advice on how to create recyclable garments while stepping away from the mono-material approach.

The document focuses on improving recyclability for garments made from cotton, polyester and polyamide 6, based on the technologies of project partners Infinited Fiber Company, CuRe Technology and BASF.
