PurFi merges ‘Pure’ and ‘Fiber’, a sustainable technology company specializing in textile waste rejuvenation, offering innovative solutions for water recycling and environmental sustainability in textile mills. It transforms various post-industrial and consumer textile waste into high-quality, rejuvenated products such as yarn and filaments. With cutting-edge Reverse Spinning technology and enhancements derived from organic sources, they maintain the integrity of the fibers while unlocking new possibilities for sustainability.
PurFi offers sustainable solutions in 3 textile categories:
- Fiber Rejuvenation through Reverse Spinning
- Filament Recovery through Chips
- Elastane removal through d’Lastane™ Technology
PurFi has an innovative process for turning old textiles into high-quality fibers by first collecting and sorting the waste. They use a special soft mechanical recycling process called Reverse Spinning that gently separates the fibers without harsh chemicals, preserving their strength and length. The sorting ensures top quality, and eco-friendly methods are used to enhance the fibers while keeping everything chemical-free. This process utilizes a 150 to 160-meter-long machine that carefully unravels fabrics—whether woven, knitted, or non-woven—by applying a gentle physical force. Unlike traditional mechanical recycling, PurFi’s method preserves the original length and strength of the fibers, enhancing their value for manufacturers. Once the fibers are ready, they are assigned tracking codes to maintain transparency in the supply chain, enabling companies to create sustainable products and support a circular economy with zero waste.
PurFi is transforming textile sustainability by converting waste into high-quality fibers, significantly reducing landfill waste and conserving up to 99% of water and 70% of energy. Their innovative circular economy approach enhances supply chain transparency through track-and-trace systems, enabling partners to achieve sustainability goals while creating jobs and strengthening communities. PurFi’s recycling method minimizes fiber length loss to just 10-15%, making it more sustainable by decreasing the reliance on new raw materials. Moreover, the company prioritizes long-term strategic partnerships, focusing on collaborative integration of recycled fibers into mainstream textile production.
