• YARN-TO-YARN® by Rheiazymes: Enzymes for a future without Fashion Waste

Recycling is dead. Long live recycling!

Fashion consumes 100 million tons of non-renewable resources per year.

Fast Fashion blasts 1.2 billion tons of CO² into the environment per year. 

And only 1% of clothes ever become new clothes again. 

Why all this waste? Why aren’t we recycling? 

Because we couldn't. Not the mixed synthetic fibers. Until now...


Rethinking fashion. With circular fabrics.

What if raw materials were like water?

What if fashion were circular?

What if we had zero waste?


We at YARN-TO-YARN® #StopWasteNotFashion. Because sustainable fashion is the only way to keep the joy in fashion.

Circularity without dertour

YARN-TO-YARN® is a further development of Cradle-to-Cradle, but in contrast, the energy that went into textile production is not lost in the compost.

With our YARN-TO-YARN® green technology, it is possible for the first time to break down man-made blended textiles - even with elastane, spandex and polyamide back into their components. Our 100% biological enzymes cleanly separate our textiles into virgin viscose, elastane and polyamide. In order to recover high-quality yarn for new clothes. Circularity at it's best and a sustainable fashion revolution.


BIO-CYCLING MIXED TEXTILES

Biological Molecular Textile Recycling

We use enzymes to convert used clothes into valuable raw materials for new yarn. An infinite yarn. In an endless cycle. It means that there is no waste and everything is reused.

Let's connect

We are a team of 3 women and 2 men combining strong know-how in Biochemistry, Engineering and Entrepreneurship.
