The fast fashion business model causes increased greenhouse gas emissions, resource depletion, and land exploitation, putting local populations at danger and compromising the planet’s well-being.
Zippers and buttons hinder textile product recycling because their removal necessitates manual labor, making the process both costly and time consuming.
Resortecs tackles this challenge by providing a sewing thread for seams that melts at particular temperatures that correspond to the textile product’s materials and use requirements. The finished product can then be disassembled in Resortec’s continuous and automatic disassembly ovens as needed.
