Industrial Textile Waste Valorisation

The treatment
pathway for waste
no one else takes.

AURBOROS converts non-recyclable mixed textile fractions — contaminated, unsorted, synthetic blends — into Grade A activated carbon and food-grade liquid CO₂. Full EPR compliance documentation with every tonne.

Problem Scale
5.8M t
European textile waste generated annually with no viable treatment pathway
Carbon Impact
83%
Reduction in CO₂ emissions versus incineration per tonne treated
Regulatory Deadline
2025
EU mandatory separate textile collection entered into force — no treatment infrastructure ready
How It Works

From waste fraction
to industrial resource.

No pre-sorting required. No minimum quality threshold. We accept what the recycling chain cannot.

Input
Mixed Textile Waste
Unsorted post-consumer and post-industrial textiles. Synthetic blends, contaminated fractions, polyester, nylon, acrylic. Moisture up to 18%.
Accepts: All fibre compositions
Pre-sorting: Not required
Min. quality: None

Partnership Model

Two types of
industrial partner.

We are currently in conversation with anchor partners for our first industrial unit in Portugal.

⬡
Feedstock Partners
Waste Operators · EPR Producers · Municipalities
  • Gate fee treatment with guaranteed capacity — no pre-sorting or quality threshold required
  • Full traceability certificate per tonne — directly usable for EPR compliance reporting
  • 83% lower carbon footprint than incineration — documentable for sustainability reporting
  • DNSH-compliant treatment pathway under EU Taxonomy and EPR frameworks from 2028
  • Framework agreements from 5,000 to 15,000 tonnes per year
◈
Offtake Partners
Water Treatment · Food & Beverage · Industrial Gas
  • Consistent Grade A PAC supply — 675 mg/g iodine number — for industrial water treatment applications
  • Food-grade liquid CO₂ at 99.98% purity for beverage carbonation and food processing
  • European production origin — eliminates dependency on Asian PAC supply chains
  • Circular economy sourcing credentials for ESG reporting and procurement requirements
  • Offtake agreements discussed from first unit commissioning
