Simco Spinning & Textile, exclusive manufacturers of Cyclo recycled fibers in Bangladesh, has entered into a strategic partnership with The Movement (parent company of Aware) to become nominated spinners of the Aware Integrity Solution in Bangladesh.
Modern textiles rely heavily on petrochemical products that come from many of the same oil and gas companies driving greenhouse gas emissions. Today, in fact, fashion accounts for up to 10% of global carbon dioxide output—more than international flights and shipping combined, according to the United Nations Environment Programme. 48 million tones of clothing are disposed worldwide every year. 73% are incinerated, 12% is reused, 12% is downcycled, and only less then 1% is turned into new clothes.
Bangladesh Cyclo Recycled Fibers of Simco Spinning & Textile Ltd. has helped pioneer producing fiber using recycling technology from cutting waste. What started with the production of yarn that was mostly used to produce cleaning materials and other home textiles has evolved into Cyclo Recycled Fibers: a high-quality, commercially applicable yarn that is a sustainable alternative for apparel and other textile applications.
AWARE™ traceability technology can be used for all kinds of sustainable materials. Authentic sustainable materials are verified by unique tracer particles (added to the material) and validated by secure blockchain. These sustainable materials are available directly at nominated spinners in several locations around the world.
Cyclo recycled yarn embedded with the Aware Integrity Solution is fully traceable from fiber to final product. With Aware tracer particles added to the certified recycled Cyclo Fiber, the final garment can be scanned by a hand-held device to verify that genuine Cyclo yarn has been used for that final product.
