In Europe and the US alone, an estimated 22 million tonnes of textiles are discarded each year, with only about 1% of waste clothing material being recycled. The global fashion industry produces approximately 109 million tonnes of clothes annually. Finland-based Infinited Fibre aims to address this issue by converting waste cotton into new thread that can be recycled repeatedly. This innovative approach seeks to significantly reduce textile waste and promote a circular fashion economy. Additionally, 100 billion fashion items are produced yearly, but less than 1% are recycled.
