As we have a strong belief in the company\u2019s long-term potential, we have together with our advisors spent very substantial time and efforts into trying to secure the necessary liquidity, capital and ownership structure for the company to secure its future. As part of the negotiations, we have had intense dialogues with both current main owners, new investors and our banks, as well as other stakeholders. However, these discussions have not been successful. This is a sad day for the environment, our employees, our shareholders, and our other stakeholders, and it is a testament to the lack of leadership and necessary pace of change in the fashion industry\u201d says <strong>Chairman of the Board of Directors, Michael Berg<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>About Renewcell<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Re:NewCell AB (publ) (\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.renewcell.com\/en\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Renewcell<\/a>\u201d) developed a patented process that enables the recycling of cellulosic textile waste, such as worn-out cotton clothes and production scraps, transforming it into a pristine new material called CIRCULOSE\u00ae.
