TEXTILE INDUSTRY HAS BECOME THE SECOND MOST POLLUTANT BEHIND THE OIL INDUSTRY.
TEXTILE INDUSTRY HAS BECOME THE SECOND MOST POLLUTANT BEHIND THE OIL INDUSTRY.
MORE THAN 16 MILLION TONS OF TEXTILE ARE GENERATED PER YEAR IN EUROPE AND LESS THAN 1% OF THE FIBERS ENDS UP RECYCLING.
73% OF THE MATERIALS USED ON CLOTHING ENDS IN LANDFILLS OR INCINERATED.
RECYCLING TEXTILE IS A COMPLEX PROCESS SINCE ITS COMPOSITION MAY BE OF DIFFERENT MATERIALS AND CONFECTIONS
BUT IT IS POSSIBLE IF WE MAKE A CORRECT CLASSIFICATION BY COMPOSITION, IN THE SAME WAY WE DO WITH PLASTICS, WHOSE HETEREOGENEITY IS SIMILAR TO THAT OF FABRICS.
USING NEXT GENERATION NIR TECHNOLOGY AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, PICVISA EQUIPMENTS CAN SEPARATE COTTON, POLYESTER, VISCOSE AND OTHER MATERIALS GARMENTS.
THEY CAN ALSO SEPARATE THEM BY SIZE AND COLOR.
AT PICVISA WE PUT OUR TECHNOLOGY AT THE SERVICE OF SUSTAINABILITY TO MAKE THE RECOVERY OF TEXTILE FIBERS A REALITY AND THUS REACH THE RECYCLING TARGETS SET BY THE EU FOR 2025.
