Saurer is a leading globally operating technology company focusing on innovations for the processing of fibers and yarn, including machinery, components, and software. We partner with customers, providing smart fit-for-purpose solutions to help our clients achieve their business aspirations.
One of the interesting innovations of Saurer at the Itma 2023 exhibition was the collaboration with the Portuguese company Inovafil and the Sweden-based company Renewcell for spinning of 100% cellulose recycled fibers called Circulose, which was demonstrated live on three different types of spinning machines by Saurer to visitors and spinning sector experts.
Below you can see Kohan Textile Journal’s exclusive interview with Mrs. Pia Terasa from Saurer who explains more about this cooperation and Saurer solutions for recycled fibers …
Renewcell Circulose Fiber
Cellulose is the most abundant organic polymer in the world. It is what makes up the cell walls of most plants and trees. The purest cellulose found in nature is cotton.
Circulose is a branded dissolving pulp that Renewcell makes from 100% textile waste with high cellulose content, such as worn-out cotton jeans and cotton production scraps.
Dissolving pulp cellulose is used to make viscose, lyocell, modal, or other types of man-made cellulosic fibers. These fibers are then spun into yarns, woven or knitted into fabrics, and finally cut and sewn into new high-quality textile products.
The only difference of Circulose to these cellulosic fibers is that it is made from textile waste instead of wood, straw, or bamboo.
