HULL - Safety clothing and footwear supplier ARCO has committed further funding to Teesside-based recycling start-up Stuff4Life to set up a new joint venture company which aims to create a circular supply chain for polyester.
The new company - Stuff4Life Workwear - aims to enable Stuff4Life to develop its patent-pending chemical recycling process towards full-scale commercialisation, as well as support ARCO's net-zero emission targets.
It builds on an existing relationship with Teesside University and its Net Zero Industry Innovation Centre, as well as the Centre for Process Innovation at Wilton, near Middlesbrough, part of the UK Government’s High Value Manufacturing Catapult.
