Small change, big impact.
The textile industry generates over 1.2 billion tons of CO₂ eq. per year. Every second, one truck full of textiles is wasted across the globe. Resortecs helps textile players transition from linear to circular production. Textile products stitched with Smart Stitch™ and recycled after Smart Disassembly™ can have half the carbon impact other clothing generates. Don't take our word for it, check our externally reviewed Life Cycle Assessment figures.
A pair of jeans sewn on with Smart Stitch™ and recycled in a closed-loop way generates 50% less CO₂ eq. and 80% less textile waste.
Adopting Smart Disassembly™ ahead of recycling can reduce water usage by 3,500 L and free up to 4.5 m² of land for crop production when compared to traditional disassembly.
Sustainability is a cost, Circularity is an investment.
Translated into business figures, adopting Smart Stitch™ and Smart Disassembly™ mean: reducing raw material loss by 50%, cutting CO₂ offsetting costs by 50%, and saving over € 0.50 per pair of jeans. If the European garment production share were thermally disassembled and recycled, the textile industry would generate 60.3 million fewer tons of CO₂ and save up to €2.3 billion per year.

Smart Stitch™ and Smart Disassembly™ allow for the recovery of, on average, 95% of a textile product, compared to 45% and 60% in the case of less efficient manual and mechanical disassembly processes, respectively.
