Ambercycle has entered into a strategic partnership with global polymer and yarn producer Highsun Holding Group (HSCC) to drive circularity in woven yarns. This collaboration will focus on expanding textile-to-textile (T2T) closed-loop recycling systems and developing innovative solutions across the textile industry’s value chain.

The partnership aims to transform the global textile sector by scaling recycling capabilities and promoting sustainable practices. Together, the two companies will engage in the development of the fiber market, sourcing end-of-life textile feedstock, collaborating on engineering innovations, producing next-generation materials, and setting quality benchmarks for circular textiles.

Mei Zhen, Vice President, Highsun Holding Group, says, through its partnership with Ambercycle, the group accelerates the use of recycled inputs, reducing its reliance on virgin resources, and driving impactful change across the industry.

Recognized globally as a key supplier in polymer and yarn manufacturing, HSCC has a state-of-the-art R&D center in the Netherlands with global operations headquartered in China, HSCC brings significant technical expertise to this collaboration. The company is focused on replacing virgin polyester and nylon with recycled alternatives—helping to minimize waste, lower emissions, and build a decarbonized supply chain.

Shay Sethi, Co-founder and CEO, Ambercycle, adds, scaling textile-to-textile recycling solutions requires strong partnerships and shared innovation. With this partnership, HSCC lays the foundation for a truly circular and sustainable textile ecosystem.

The collaboration seeks to set new industry-wide standards for circularity, ensuring that recycled synthetics are not only traceable and high-performance but also scalable. Ambercycle and HSCC believe this strategic move represents a major step forward in aligning environmental goals with industry innovation.
