Develop new textile industry the future of the pulp and paper technology

On March 28, 2022

The textile industry to a more sustainable fiber textiles and textile recycling more and more interested in.D virtue saw the industry has a huge commercial potential, because of its technical and professional knowledge is suitable for the textile fiber technique.

Textile industry is one of the world's third largest manufacturing industry, the textile market is growing rapidly.As the change of consumer behavior and the European Union legislation, as well as the fashion brand facing the huge pressure of sustainable products, people more and more interested in fiber and regenerated fiber textiles.

As fiber and textile fiber production technology, service and automation partner, d virtue saw the huge commercial potential of the textile industry.The use of sustainable textiles and dimensional virtue will also renewable resources into the vision of sustainable product height.In terms of textile recycling, is currently the most potential market in Europe, the eu plans to stop landfill textiles in 2025, and urgent to promote recycling more clothes.

Using the existing technology and professional knowledge

D the pulp and paper technology and professional knowledge of virtue is suitable for the textile fiber technology.Over the years, of virtue and some development textile recycling and cellulose textile fiber process interested partners established a close relationship.

The two order of 2021

In 2021, d virtue released from the two orders of the textile industry.D virtue will provide Renewcell company textile recycling factory main equipment, and provide textile fiber Spinnova - Suzano joint venture factory with drying technology.

Renewcell used technology, the use of cotton and other 100% cellulose fibre textiles from recycling, and transformed into a biodegradable paper pulp.

"Our customers use our production called Circulose ® dissolving pulp, in the production of biodegradable native quality glue or lai self textile fiber.We are very honored to with H&M group and tangshan poetic textile industry leading companies such as cooperation, use our products.We are currently in the Swedish Sundsvall SCA Ortviken industrial zone to build a new industrial scale textile recycling plant.Since 2 in 017, we have been in our world, to develop and optimize the small-scale factory of Kristinehamn unique proprietary recovery process, we will use the Ortviken project research.D virtue in the study is the key technology of our partners."Renewcell chief officerHarald Cavalli - Bjork - manSaid.

"In the past, the vast majority of textiles was sent to the landfill waste, even if the recovery of textiles is low value-added application.For example, as a furniture stuffing.Renewcell technology was the result of a wide range of product development, for the textile market has brought a new kind of dissolving pulp products.The factory USES dimensional virtue of slurry preparation, bleaching and dry professional knowledge.This project will bring new opportunities for the entire value chain."D fiber processing business line, vice President of virtueRickard AnderssonSaid.

Spinnova and Suzano factory will use the cellulose or waste textile production textile fiber, its production process does not contain any harmful chemicals, water consumption and emissions are very low, also does not produce any waste.

"We chose the global pulp and paper technology leading supplier d virtue as our key partner, support our sustainable fiber production scale.With our conceptual validation in Finland Jyvaskyla pilot plant, we are now with our strategic partners Suzano in a ratio of 50/50 in the construction of our first commercial scale fiber factory.The factory is located in Jyvaskyla, is expected to be put into operation at The end of 2022, The production of fiber supply to our brand partners, including adidas, H&M group, The North Face and Marimekko brands.Textile industry are anxiously waiting for the sustainability of the raw material substitute."Spinnova's chief executive and co-founder of Janne Poranen explains.

The eu plans to stop landfill textiles in 2025, does its best to promote the clothing collection.

"D virtue unique technical and professional knowledge in the emerging new biomass of textile technology has great potential.Cooperation with Spinno - va is we attach great importance to technological innovation and to create new opportunities in fiber industry a good example.We can use our proven existing technologies, and we are in the field of fiber technology extensive professional knowledge is very important to expand production.We constantly develop new products and new technology."D papermaking business line, President of virtueJari Vahapesolasaid

Eu legislation have any influence on textile industry?

The European commission plans to the textile industry to take the following measures:

  • To develop ecological design requirements to ensure that the textile products is suitable for recycling, ensure that can be used as a secondary raw material use, avoid the use of dangerous chemicals, and authorize sustainable textile businesses and consumers to choose.
  • By supporting the "product as a service" mode, circulation of materials and production process, and through the international cooperation to improve transparency, improve the sustainable cycle for recycling of textile business and regulatory environment.
  • According to the current waste framework directive, for textile waste classified collection provides guidance.This directive requires member states in the 2025 years ago to establish the classification of the textile waste collection system.
  • Through innovation and extended producer responsibility, promote textile recycling, reusing and recycling.Textile industry because of its high resource utilization and great impact on the environment, in the European green agreement "and" the new European industrial strategy "has also been identified as the European Union to realize the sustainable development of the industry first.

Provide Spinnova - textile fiber Suzano joint venture factory with drying technology

Announced in May 2021, d virtue will be located in Finland Jyvaskyla Spinnova - textile fiber Suzano joint venture factory provide drying technology.D virtue will provide customers with high-tech air dry.

Spinnova and Suzano in Finland to invest 22 million euros to build the first commercial scale SPINNO - VA ® fiber factory.This material is a kind of cellulose or waste as raw material to produce sustainable natural fiber, its production process does not contain any harmful chemicals, water consumption and emissions are very low, also does not produce any waste.Factory construction work is expected to be completed by the end of 2022.

In the joint venture, Spinnova will provide proprietary technology, whereas Suzano is responsible for the micro fiber cellulose (MFC) and other kinds of raw materials needed for protection.Spin - nova hope looking for a technology partner think globalization support its expansion plans.They choose d virtue for production line equipped with air drying equipment of the air drying of high and new technology.The technology has been widely applied in the paper and cardboard production, now it is used in the textile fiber production.
