Our project is to develop a range of artists papers made from 100% textile waste.By combining our deep understanding of the craft of papermaking by hand with the latest fibre processing machinery, we will create a series of papers that are both more sustainable and of superior quality to anything currently available on the market.This will create a new way to sustainably recycle textile waste direct from rag. The most popular form of textile recycling currently is fibre to fibre recycling which involves chemically intensive processing to turn the fibres into cotton pulp ready for reuse. By working directly from rags, we avoid this step entirely.We have developed this process already at lab scale, creating papers made from linen, cotton and denim textile waste. Rags were the predominant papermaking fibre used for centuries, right up until the industrialisation of the process in the 19th century. By refining this process for the 21st century, we hope to offer an alternative papermaking fibre to virgin cotton pulp, the most popular fibre for use in premium papers, and which uses vast amounts of water and agrochemicals in its production.

我们的项目是要开发一系列由100％纺织品浪费制成的艺术家论文。通过将对造纸工艺的深刻理解与最新的纤维加工机械结合在一起，我们将创建一系列更可持续性的论文，既具有更可持续性又具有卓越的质量，既可以在市场上可用的任何东西，这将创建一种可持续的恢复型文本废物，直接从RAG中提供可持续的回收式文语废物。目前，最流行的纺织品回收形式是纤维回收，涉及化学密集型加工以将纤维变成准备重复使用的棉浆。通过直接从抹布工作，我们完全避免了这一步骤。我们已经在实验室规模上开发了此过程，从而创建了用亚麻，棉花和牛仔纺织品制成的论文。抹布是数百年来使用的主要造纸纤维，直到19世纪的工业化为止。通过完善21世纪的这一过程，我们希望为Virgin Cotton Pulp提供另一种造纸纤维，这是用于高级论文中最受欢迎的纤维，它在其生产中使用了大量的水和农业化学物质。
