Circulose steps up commercial lyocell ambitions

STOCKHOLM – Circulose has signed an agreement with China Textile Academy Green Fibre (CTA) to supply its pulp from textile waste for use in commercial lyocell fibre production, offering both standard and non‑fibrillating grades to brand partners.

What is new here, is that the partners are now explicitly presenting a route to commercial lyocell volumes, with concrete timelines, a defined offtake commitment and a licensing model under which CTA will bring recycled lyocell to market.
