For decades, recycling has been built around one assumption: if we can sort products into simple categories, we can recycle them. That assumption no longer holds true.
Two T-shirts.
Same Label.
Different Chemistry.
Modern products are more complex than ever before. A single garment may contain multiple polymers, fibres, coatings, dyes and finishes.
Two products carrying exactly the same label may require different recovery methods because their chemistry is fundamentally different.

As products have evolved, recycling has remained largely static. When the process cannot adapt to these increasingly complex materials, the material is rejected.
That is one of the reasons why so much valuable textile waste is downcycled, incinerated or sent to landfill instead of becoming new raw material.
The Sixone platform applies the right process to every material.
Our Difference
Rather than forcing every material through the same recovery process, we begin by understanding how each material reacts under different recovery processes. That intelligence allows us to recover more value from more complex waste streams than conventional systems were designed to handle.
Recycling today
Static recycling
applies one process

Dynamic recycling
applies the right process
to every material.
How it Works
The Sixone platform combines intelligent material analysis with adaptive chemistry to create premium recovered materials.
Prism—a smarter approach to material recovery.
Explore PRISM
Prism analyses each incoming item and captures a chemical fingerprint that reflects its material composition and additives. Rather than relying on assumptions or simplified labels, Prism predicts the reaction characteristics before recovery begins. Instead of applying one fixed chemistry to every batch, Sixone uses this material intelligence to adjust the process dynamically.
Origin—premium polyester from 100% recycled textiles.
Explore ORIGIN
A high-performance recycled polyester designed to perform like virgin material while originating from complex waste streams that conventional systems struggle to recover. Origin demonstrates what becomes possible when material intelligence and adaptive chemistry work together.
The Sixone system creates value across the entire material ecosystem.
Brands
Design products without being constrained by today's recycling limitations, knowing future recovery is built into the system.
Manufacturers & Mills
Access consistent, high-quality recycled feedstocks that integrate seamlessly into existing manufacturing processes.
Recyclers
Recover value from increasingly complex waste streams that conventional technologies struggle to process economically.
Collectors
Transform low-value or stranded waste into commercially valuable feedstocks, creating new economic opportunities across the collection network.
Our platform is built for local recovery
Decentralised recovery platform
Sixone has been designed so materials can be recovered closer to where they are generated. By combining local facilities with globally connected technology, waste becomes a regional resource rather than an international logistics problem.
Shorter transport distances. Stronger local supply chains. Greater resilience. More value retained within regional economies.
