ReHiTechTex: Recycling of used firefighter uniforms. Introduction of layer-by-layer recycling of new uniforms and production of new products.
The project aims to create a new circular economy business model for high technological (high-tech) garments, specifically for firefighters’ suits: Re-hitechtex.
It comprises the setup of a recollection system of the used firefighters’ suits, the sorting, the mechanical debridement to convert the fabric into fiber, the development of a new yarn using these fibers and the introduction of this yarn in the manufacturing process of new firefighters’ garments, closing the circle.
The base of the innovation is the circularity of high-tech garments
