DenimX

Upcycling is the process of transforming textile waste that would otherwise be discarded into functional products. The DenimX process is as simple as it is clever. We press a carefully curated blend of textile fibers and bio-based plastics into sheets, which can then be molded on a large scale into three-dimensional products. The versatility of DenimX allows the material to be tailored to the aesthetic and technical requirements of clients in virtually any market. The composition of this fiber-reinforced material can be optimized for its specific application: rigid or flexible, strong, lightweight, thick, or thin. Decorative prints, embossed logos, various backing layers, and honeycomb structures can also be integrated, as can reflective foils and woven textures. This creates additional functionalities, such as light reflection, increased strength, and rigidity, all while maintaining a low weight. Furthermore, the DenimX production process can be applied to compositions using other base fibers, such as polyester, polyester-cotton blends, PE, PP, hemp, bamboo, flax, or wool. The binder used to hold the textile fibers together can also vary, ranging from bio-based PLA to PP, PE, PES, and other transparent plastics. Each composition offers a unique look, feel, and set of functional properties, and can be developed based on the specific requirements of the client and the product.
