About us:

DyeRecycle is a colour & fibre innovation company. Our chemical technology recycles colours from textile waste while making waste fabric white to enable more efficient fibre recycling. Our vision is to create a future where planet-positive textiles are made through circular processes and transparent supply chains in every step of manufacturing. Our mission is to provide circular & inspiring solutions of recycled colours and fibres to reduce the textile industry's dependence on virgin materials — without sacrificing performance or creativity.

  2. Plan, resource and lead the scale-up of processes from laboratory to pilot-scale operations, facilitating seamless integration into commercial production.
  3. Utilize technoeconomic assessment tools to evaluate the viability and economic feasibility of process improvements and scale-up initiatives, informing decision-making and resource allocation.
  4. Strategically manage the patent portfolio to protect intellectual property and align with commercialization objectives, collaborating with legal and technical teams as needed.
  5. Engage in travel to manufacturing sites across Asia, Europe, and the US to oversee operations, troubleshoot issues, and foster relationships with partners and stakeholders.
  6. Build an exceptional technical culture, attracting and retaining a diverse group of high performing scientists and engineers.
  7. Responsible for adherence to health & safety and environmental matters, leading change initiatives to constantly be improving and performing in these areas.
