Fiberpartner ORBIT® closes the loop by transforming textile waste into new fibers, reducing raw material extraction and supporting a responsible production cycle. Recycled textiles save resources like water and energy and reduce CO2 emissions compared to producing new textiles. They also help reduce textile waste in landfills.
Fiberpartner ORBIT® focuses on high recyclability, while Fiberpartner ORBIT® Bio incorporates an Bio technology, to reduce the long term microplastic pollution impact.
Fiberpartner ORBIT® reduces textile waste in landfills, minimizes reliance on virgin and bottle grade polyester, and cuts down on greenhouse gas emissions and energy usage.
For Fiberpartner ORBIT® textile waste is collected, sorted, melted, and extruded into recycled polyester fibers. ORBIT® Plus will be produced through a depolymerization process that transforms textile waste into polyester with properties similar to virgin polyester.
Currently, Fiberpartner ORBIT® is designed for non-food applications like textiles and furniture. ORBIT® Plus can be produced with FDA approval.
Fiberpartner ORBIT® is slightly cheaper than traditional recycled polyester, making it an economical choice for manufacturers.
Yes, it meets recognized industry standards and certifications like REACH, GRS, OEKO-TEX Class 1, ensuring safety and environmentally friendly production.
Fiberpartner ORBIT® is suitable for cost-effective fillings, furniture, cushions, and automobile interiors, while Fiberpartner ORBIT® Plus is ideal for bedding, clothing, and high-performance textiles.
Unlike traditional recycled polyester made from PET bottles, Fiberpartner ORBIT® is made entirely or partly from pre consumer textile waste, offering a more circular solution.
Pre-consumer textile waste includes fabric scraps, cut-offs, and other remnants generated during textile production that would otherwise go to waste.
