Truly Circular Textile Solutions

The only textile recovery technology producing pure cotton and 99.5% pure constituent products from old fabrics, ready to be spun into brand-new textiles.

No shredding. No waste. Just the first truly circular textile solution.

Hybridworks offers complete recovery of discarded blended textiles

What we do

The industry no longer has to settle for shoddy outputs with limited usage. Our advanced solutions recover intact cotton fibers and high-quality blended textile chemical constituents to ensure these valuable materials get a new lease on life. At scale, our process reduces demand for virgin cotton, limits petroleum-derived chemical products, and promotes truly circular economy practices.

The only technology delivering virgin-quality TPA and intact cotton fibers from blended textiles.

Hybridworks Outputs

  • Full Recovery of Reusable Cotton

    Unlike other textile recycling methods which shred and weaken fibers, our process keeps cotton intact, making it immediately reusable in new textiles without down-cycling.

  • Full Recovery of Reusable TPA

    We fully recover purified terephthalic acid (TPA) from blended textiles, ensuring it is indistinguishable from virgin materials and can be used indefinitely in new polyester production.

  • Full Recovery of Reusable Ethylene Glycol

    Our advanced process extracts ethylene glycol (EG) in its purest form, reducing reliance on petroleum-based alternatives and supporting a fully circular polyester lifecycle.

In relentless pursuit of more sustainable solutions for today’s mindful manufacturers.
