Circ®

At Circ®, we’ve always known that wide-scale change requires wide-scale action. To that end, in the last few years, we’ve partnered with brands like #ZARA and Mara Hoffman to help bring our recycled fibers to people around the world.   Ultimately, though, in order to drive brands' next-gen material uptake, the supply chain that services them must be equipped. We’re expanding the reach of our materials by partnering with members of the fashion supply chain — to create even wider-scale opportunities for circular change.   Introducing: Circ®-Ready. This select community is made up of various industry partners who are committed to operationalizing the use of Circ®’s recycled materials. Circ®-Ready partners not only know the value of Circ’s regenerated fibers, but also know how to use and work with them — helping brands achieve their visions and playing an integral part in threading together the future of circular fashion.   The inaugural Circ®-Ready partners include Artistic Garment Industries (AGI Denim), Foshan Chicley Textile Co., Ltd., Giotex, Marubeni Corporation, MAS Holdings, PYRATEX®, Selenis Specialty Polyester Solutions, SHINJINTEX, Soorty Enterprises Pvt. Ltd. Denimkind, Tainan Spinning Co., Ltd., and Taiwan Textile Research Institute (TTRI). Learn more about Circ®-Ready and our partners, here: https://lnkd.in/gNggTfnA

Being in London last week was a much-needed shot of optimism and reminder that there is a whole lot of good in this world. Attending the Breakthrough Energy Summit during London Climate Action Week (#LCAW2024), reuniting with fellow #EarthshotPrize finalists, launching Circ®-Ready at #FutureFabricsExpo, and meeting with so many other brilliant minds who are working to create a sustainable future made it clear that, together, we are all making significant strides toward reducing our impact on the planet. We are so grateful for the partnerships and connections we’ve made on this journey thus far. Even more good things to come, friends. #BESummit24 The Earthshot Prize The Sustainable Angle Bill Gates Artistic Garment Industries (AGI Denim), Foshan Chicley Textile Co., Ltd., Giotex, Marubeni Corporation, MAS Holdings, PYRATEX®, Selenis Specialty Polyester Solutions, SHINJINTEX, Soorty Enterprises Pvt.

We're proud to have Breakthrough Energy as a Founding Partner of the #EarthshotPrize.

We're in London this week not only for #FutureFabricsExpo, but also to take part in London Climate Action Week events with The Earthshot Prize. Our CEO, Peter Majeranowski, and CBO, Luke Henning, kicked things off by reuniting with our fellow 2023 #EarthshotPrize finalists at a wonderful Welcome Dinner and are looking forward to a week full of opportunities to connect and talk with others about how we can all speed to scale. #LCAW2024

I’m proud to share that we just launched our Circ®-Ready community, a vibrant group of like-minded supply-chain partners at every node, from fiber to yarns, fabrics to final garments, all working with Circ’s materials. Our Circ®-Ready partners are forward-thinking pioneers eager to collaborate with next-generation technologies to protect the planet from the cost of clothing. This community is dedicated to creating an "easy button" for brands that want to make clothing from old clothes rather than natural resources. The inaugural Circ®-Ready partners include Artistic Garment Industries (AGI Denim), Foshan Chicley Textiles Co., Ltd., Giotex, Marubeni Corporation, MAS Holdings, PYRATEX®, Selenis Specialty Polyester Solutions, SHINJINTEX, Soorty Enterprises Pvt. Ltd. Denimkind, Tainan Spinning Co., Ltd., and (TTRI) Taiwan Textile Research Institute. These partners are transforming our recycled pulp and monomers into high-quality products, helping brands achieve their sustainability goals and shaping the future of circular fashion. Being Circ®-Ready offers significant advantages. With increasing regulatory demands in the EU and U.S., our partners are ahead of the curve, ready to meet the highest sustainability standards. This collaboration provides a competitive edge in a market where the demand for sustainable products is rapidly growing. Our partners gain early access to innovative materials, receive specialized support from our technical experts, and have opportunities to collaborate on groundbreaking projects with leading global brands. This isn’t just beneficial for the planet—it’s a game-changer for business. As we continue to thoughtfully expand our Circ®-Ready community, the future of sustainable fashion looks brighter than ever. Together, let's keep pushing the boundaries of what's possible!

We launched Circ®-Ready because transforming the #fashionindustry requires change across the *whole* supply chain, not just brands. This exclusive community is intended to help partners across the supply chain become experts at not only using Circ®’s recycled fibers, but also experts in creating high-quality fashion products from them, as well. As brands and retailers are being asked, more and more, to choose sustainable means of fashion, these manufacturing partners are proactively making the choice to operationalize the use of Circ’s recycled material — helping us make even more comprehensive progress toward a more #circularfashion economy. Circ®-Ready partners include Artistic Garment Industries (AGI Denim), Foshan Chicley Textile Co., Ltd., Giotex, Marubeni Corporation, MAS Holdings, PYRATEX®, Selenis Specialty Polyester Solutions, SHINJINTEX, Soorty Enterprises Pvt. Ltd. Denimkind, Tainan Spinning Co., Ltd., and Taiwan Textile Research Institute (TTRI). Learn more about Circ®-Ready here: https://lnkd.in/gNggTfnA

Shifting how the industry makes materials toward better-for-the-planet solutions is no small lift. So how do we begin to overhaul a global industry built on centuries-old processes? We have some ideas, but you'll have to stay tuned...
