“By working with the T2T Alliance, we will actively drive the scaling of true textile circularity through enforceable standards, clear market signals, and regulatory frameworks built around the realities of advanced recycling technology,” Epoch said in the post.
“The T2T Alliance is driving exactly those conversations. We’re joining to make sure the voice of next-generation enzymatic recycling is heard in Brussels and to help design policies that make circular materials the default, not the exception.”
The company added that textile-to-textile recycling must become the industry standard and said it intends to support initiatives that accelerate that transition.
Epoch produces sustainable outputs for use in apparel, automotive, packaging and more. The company’s bio-recycling platform unlocks circularity for the toughest-to-recycle materials, and its AI-designed enzymes are described as enabling infinite recycling for mixed plastics and textiles at low temperatures.
