At TLC, 77% of the looms now use yarn containing post-consumer waste: jeans, t-shirts, trousers, sweaters of all colours. A year ago, the average was only 20%.
The clothes placed in the collection terminals are: sorted by Synergies TLC; prepared by Nouvelles Fibres Textiles; frayed by Buisson Recyclage; then rewoven at Tissages de Charlieu to become essential products again.
The incorporation of post-consumer recycled material proves to be compatible with an industrial pace. Also, the entire process takes place within 1000 km.
