HULL – MYGroup is to invest £500,000 in a new sustainable textile factory at its existing site in Hull, a project that the waste management and recycling firm is describing as a ‘UK-first’.
The two-storey, 1,300 square metre factory space, being constructed within a derelict former laboratory and offices within MYGroup’s Morley Street recycling campus in the city, will house a complete recycling and remanufacturing process for waste textiles, from clothing to accessories and home furnishings.
