Sulzer, a Swiss industrial engineering and manufacturing company, has joined Spinnova\u2019s ecosystem (consortium) to enable the availability of SPINNOVA\u00ae fibre in the textile materials market. Sulzer will contribute its expertise to support Spinnova\u2019s development work.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sulzer is a global leader in critical applications for core infrastructure and processes for large essential industries around the world. Sulzer\u2019s technology enables its customers to enhance their energy efficiency and resource management, improve performance, reduce emissions, and develop solutions that support the circular economy.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spinnova has previously partnered with Sulzer during the Woodspin demonstration factory project, from planning to ramping up production. Sulzer has also supported Spinnova in the ramp-up of piloting environment for MFC (microfibrillated cellulose) production. Beyond delivering machinery and expertise, the collaboration has involved close co-development between the two companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This new agreement formalises Sulzer\u2019s role in future technology development and strengthens the ecosystem with additional engineering expertise. Spinnova\u2019s ecosystem aims to accelerate the scaling of its technology and fibre supply by engaging partners across the value chain. Sulzer supports this goal through multiple contributions, including efforts to increase cost competitiveness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About Spinnova \u2013 The textile material innovation<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Spinnova technology transforms the way textiles are manufactured globally. Based in Finland, Spinnova has developed a breakthrough patented technology for making textile fibre out of wood pulp or waste, such as leather, textile, or agricultural cropping waste, without harmful chemicals or dissolving.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spinnova technology creates no side streams in the fibre production process, and the SPINNOVA\u00ae fibre has minimal CO2<\/sub> emissions and water use, as well as being biodegradable and recyclable. Spinnova technology uses a mechanical process which gives the fibre the look and feel of a natural cellulosic fibre such as cotton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
