WE ARE CIRCLE–8
Advancing the new circular textiles industry
Building the ecosystem and infrastructure to unlock textile-to-textile recycling.
Our regional vision to solve a global problem.
THE WHAT

We aggregate high volumes of textiles that are worn out or damaged and not reusable
To turn non-reusable textiles into high quality, new materials for regional and global textile manufacturing value chains.

We use automated systems to sort and pre-process textiles into feedstock

Ready to be used in open loop, mechanical and chemical textile recycling processes
