CARPET RECYCLING PROCESS WINS WORLD ENERGY GLOBE AWARD

Post Consumer Carpet Processing Technologies® Saves Oil and Clears Landfills
Quogue, New York, April 1, 2008...Post Consumer Carpet Processing Technologies® (PCC®) was named the national winner for the United States and one of three winners in the Earth category of the World ENERGY GLOBE Award. PCC® is being honored because their new technology enables companies to recycle used carpets, save oil and help clear landfills. PCC® was selected out of 853 projects from 109 countries. It has been estimated that five billion pounds of non-biodegradable used carpet are dumped into landfills in the U.S. every year. Placed in one spot, the solid waste would need a hole one mile by one mile by 100 feet deep. If incinerated the carpets will release toxic chemicals. If accumulated they never will disintegrate, posing terrible problems for future generations...Read More >>>


INTERNATIONAL EFFORT MIXES WOOL AND USED JUTE COFFEE SACKS TO CREATE DESIGNER QUALITY RENEWABLE FABRICS

American and Italian Engineers Helped Develop Technology
Quogue, New York, October 29, 2010...Entrepreneurs in New Zealand, the UK, Italy and the USA who share a commitment to develop environmentally friendly products have created WoJo™ a high-quality fabric for interior design. The recycled fabric is a combination of 70% New Zealand Laneve wool and 30% used jute coffee sacks. The new textile was unveiled on highly styled chairs at Starbuck’s in the UK in October. Participants in developing this project each received an award as part of The Campaign for Wool initiated by HRH Prince of Wales and The Society of British Interior Design. WoJo™ started as the brainchild of Bernadette Casey, Director of The Formary in New Zealand. “Millions of tons of textile waste are dumped globally every year,” says Casey. “With over 90% of fabric able to be recycled we needed to find a way to close the loop from waste to desired new product. The first problem in this project,” adds Casey, “was to find a company to create machinery that could reclaim the jute coffee bags. We needed to return the bags to their original fiber then reuse them without their shredding.”
Casey turned to Dell’Orco & Villani in Capalle, Italy. The Company was well-known for its long history of manufacturing textile waste recycling equipment and fiber blending lines. Sergio Dell’Orco, along with his American partner and sales rep, Frank J. Levy, already had developed a break-through process for the separation of carpet face fiber from polypropylene backing thereby saving oil and helping to clear landfills. Their company, Post Consumer Carpet Processing Technologies® received the World ENERGY GLOBE Award in recognition of their contribution to sustainability...Read More >>>
