Circ rounds up supply chain partners
Based in Danville, Virginia, Circ has developed a recycling technology that breaks down blended textiles and particularly polycottons. Its process is said to recover both the cellulosic and the synthetic components that can then be used to make regenerated lyocell or recycled polyester.

To build up its market reach, the company has put together a group of like-minded companies within the supply chain to create what it calls a Circ-Ready Community. Members of this group will have “the opportunity to work with pilot-stage Circ products, receive ongoing support from Circ’s technical experts, and be among the first recommended by Circ when brands and partners seek to utilise Circ material,” reads the launch statement. The first companies to join are AGI Denim, Foshan Chicley Textile, Giotex, Marubeni Corporation, MAS Holdings, Pyratex, Selenis, Shinjintex, Soorty, Tainan Spinning, and the Taiwan Textile Research Institute (TTRI).

“Being able to announce Circ-Ready with such a robust and well-rounded group of partners is transformational for our next stage of growth,” commented Circ CEO Peter Majeranowski. “It also speaks to the positive shift taking place within the fashion industry. Having experience producing top quality products from Circ materials and access to recycled products creates a competitive edge over others who are slow to adopt recycled materials.”
