BlockTexx is a clean technology company that recovers polyester and cellulose from textiles and clothing.

Their mission is to divert textiles and clothing away from landfill and accelerate the global textile recycling industry towards a sustainable future.

​BlockTexx turns textile waste into a resource, stimulates the production of new products and meets consumers demands to reduce the environmental impact of our everyday clothing. 

I had the privilege to chat to Adrian, one of the founders of BlockTexx. 
Adrian is a seasoned retail veteran with over thirty years’ experience in major retailers in the UK and Australia. He has held multiple senior roles, including CEO of APG, owner of iconic brands Sportscraft and Saba. He has a deep and thorough knowledge of sourcing, supply chain and product development in the textile industry. He is a ‘dyed in the wool’ retailer, who loves the fashion industry.

As both an industry participant and consumer, Adrian has realised that the industry is both ready for and needs positive and real change. He observed the tension of trying to continue to grow consumption without dealing with the waste we produce, and this is where BlockTexx can make a significant contribution to the fashion model, converting textile waste into resource.
