Ecosis
Ecosis is an industrial-scale textile-to-textile polyester recycling platform backed by Filatex India Limited, one of India’s leading polyester manufacturers with over three decades of expertise. We have developed a patented chemical recycling process that converts pre- and post-consumer textile waste into virgin-grade recycled polyester chips. Our technology addresses the critical need for circular polyester by enabling high-quality, scalable, and traceable recycled material suitable for existing spinning infrastructure. Ecosis operates a pilot facility and is commissioning a commercial plant with a capacity of approximately 26,000 MT per annum. Our Life Cycle Assessment (ISO-compliant) demonstrates significant reductions in carbon emissions, fossil resource use, and water consumption compared to virgin PET. Ecosis supports global brands in achieving circularity, decarbonization, and regulatory compliance goals through certified, textile-based feedstock solutions.
DePoly
DePoly is a Swiss cleantech company pioneering advanced recycling solutions for PET plastics and polyester textiles. Founded in 2020 , DePoly has developed a proprietary chemical recycling process that operates at room temperature and standard pressure. This innovative method breaks down unsorted and contaminated PET waste—including multilayer packaging and blended textiles—into its original monomers: purified terephthalic acid (PTA) and mono-ethylene glycol (MEG). These monomers are then used to produce new, virgin-quality PET products, effectively closing the loop in the plastic lifecycle without relying on fossil fuels.
