Cellulose is the most abundant organic polymer in the world. It is what makes up the cell walls of most plants and trees. The purest cellulose found in nature is cotton.
CIRCULOSE® is a branded dissolving pulp that Renewcell makes from 100% textile waste with high cellulose content, such as worn-out cotton jeans and cotton production scraps.
Dissolving pulp cellulose is used to make viscose, lyocell, modal, acetate other types of regenerated fibers (also called man-made cellulosic fibers). These fibers are then spun into yarns, woven or knitted into fabrics and finally cut and sewn into new high-quality textile products.
The only difference with CIRCULOSE® is that they are made from textile waste instead of new cotton, oil or wood.
The Circulose® brand is a registered trademark owned by Renewcell. It functions as an ‘ingredient brand’ that helps people find virgin-quality textile products made from recycled textiles. Using the Circulose® trademark is an effective way of sharing the circular story behind clothes that you could never tell are recycled.
We offer brands and partners the use of the Circulose® trademark and branded visual assets on products made with the material under a conditional royalty-free license.
