Pioneering circularity since 2009
Menu
Looptworks continues its long history of turning excess material into opportunity by opening a state-of-the-art facility to take a wide range of natural and synthetic materials circular.
Our new 90,000-square-foot facility in Portland, OR, is the first of its kind in the United States. We are offering both fiber-to-fiber textile recycling (circularity) and downcycling under one roof to maximize the value of a material in its next life.
We turn excess textiles into fibers that are used to create new products. We utilize industrial, pre-consumer, and post-consumer textile waste streams, which means our process begins when others end.
Since each waste stream is unique, we have developed our technology to produce different circular fibers across the value chain. Depending on the input material we receive, we produce high-quality spinning, staple, or nonwoven fiber that is fully recycled and therefore truly circular.
We support businesses that are designing products with circularity and end-of-life processing in mind. But until sustainable design becomes mainstream, not every material and waste stream in the world can be turned back into a spinnable fiber. For this reason, we are excited to offer a vertical downcycling solution that extends the life of lower-quality materials and helps companies avoid landfills.
As we extend our textile recycling processes to a wider variety of input materials, we are constantly looking for ways to improve our operations. We are setting the pace with technological advancements in automation, robotics, and AI, which will increase efficiency in capacity, resources, and cost.
If you have a waste stream you would like to keep out of the landfill, let’s work together to find a zero-waste solution for your excess material.
