Cotton Recycling

Image
Cotton   can be   recycled   from pre-consumer (post-industrial) and post-consumer cotton waste. The ENERPAT Cotton Baler Machine Teach You How to Recycling Cotton Pre-consumer waste comes from any excess material produced during the production of   yarn , fabrics and textile products, e.g. selvage from weaving and fabric from factory cutting rooms. Post-consumer waste comes from discarded textile products, e.g. used apparel and home textiles. During the recycling process, the cotton waste is first sorted by type and color and then processed through stripping machines that first breaks the yarns and fabric into smaller pieces before pulling them apart into fiber. The mix is carded several times in order to clean and mix the fibers before they are spun into new yarns.
