Our objective

Recycle all types of polyester-based textiles indefinitely

Who are we?

Recyc'Elit is an innovative French company that has developed a patented, low-impact process for recycling complex polyester-based textiles intended for landfilling or incineration. Since the process is selective to polyester, co-materials (elastane, polyamide, cotton, etc.) are intact and can be valorised. It is a 100% circular process.

For a circular recycling of textiles

Our recycling process

Our innovative patented process allows the recycling of complex polyester-based textiles, which are currently landfilled or incinerated due to the lack of suitable recycling solutions. Thanks to our process, it is possible to valorise the polyester part as well as the co-materials, while limiting the impact on the environment.
