Balkan Tearing Line – Converting Textile Waste Into Value
Trützschler & Balkan Textile Machinery have collaborated to become the first full-service provider in spinning preparation for recycling of textile waste.
Textile Hard Waste – This waste is collected from various sources as listed below:
- Households: Used clothes
- Retailers and brands: Unsold inventory, defective and returned items
- Manufacturing and production: Scraps, offcuts, and defective products from textile factories and garment manufacturers
- Hospitals and hotels: Used uniforms, bed linens, towels, and other textile products
- Recycling centers and donation bins: Non-profit organisations, charities, and recycling companies have established designated collection sites where individuals can conveniently dispose of unwanted textiles
- Special events and drives: Organised events specifically for collecting textiles for recycling or repurposing
- Second-hand stores and thrift shops: Items that are not sold or are deemed unsellable
- Commercial and industrial sources: Textiles from businesses such as restaurants, gyms, and spas
Balkan machines are renowned for their high-efficiency performance in cutting, blending, and shredding textile hard waste to create fiber tufts, which are subsequently compressed into bales of secondary fibers.
