STITCHLOCK is an innovative dissolvable sewing thread designed specifically to facilitate the disassembly of garments for recycling purposes, aligning perfectly with ecodesign principles. STITCHLOCK allows for the disassembly of garments in any high-temperature dyeing machine using heat, pressure, and water. Only under these specific conditions, the thread dissolves, transforming post-consumer textile waste into valuable recyclable materials. This process not only separates the components but also prepares them for reuse by ensuring they are clean and free of odors and bacteria. Consequently, the separated materials can be fed into their respective recycling streams without contamination, enabling efficient and seamless reintegration into the circular economy. This approach makes the entire recycling process highly cost-effective and environmentally sustainable.
