Understanding fibre shortening, contamination and variation in recycled cotton

Mechanical recycling can recover valuable fibres from cotton textile waste, but the process comes with technical challenges.

Fibre length, contamination and material variation can influence the final fibre and yarn quality.

01

Fibre Shortening

Cutting, tearing, opening and carding can shorten some fibres, increasing the short-fibre content.

02

Contamination

Unwanted materials and impurities need to be controlled before and during processing.

03

Material Variation

Recovered fibres can vary in length, strength, fineness, colour and composition.

04

Blending and Process Control

Careful blending and controlled processing can help create a more consistent fibre feed.

The goal is the right balance between recovery and fibre quality.
