Transforming textiles towards circularity will require collaboration across the value chain, investments in infrastructure, and innovating both business models and technology. TOMRA Textiles works with a number of partners across geographies to address these challenges. Here are some of our current, formal collaborations.

Ongoing collaborations

TOMRA Textiles aims to collaborate with a broad set of stakeholders in shaping the future circular textiles value chain. These are our ongoing and announced collaborations:
