MRFnxtgen®
The goal of REMADE℠ to transform the U.S. recycling system by developing technologies that will revolutionize materials recovery facilities (MRFs).
Circular Design
Design for Re-X has the potential to revolutionize U.S. production systems by significantly increasing resource efficiency.
Textile & SUstainable Fashion
Estimates show that approximately 85 percent of textile waste in the U.S. ends up in a landfill or is incinerated. We’re working to reduce that figure and increase the reuse and recycling of textiles.
Full EV Reuse & Remanufacturing
REMADE’s goal is to develop effective recycling technologies to address the projected increase in EV demand and ensure the recovery of high-value materials.
Recovery & Recycling of E-Scrap
REMADE and its members are developing technologies to double the recycling rate of e-scrap and recover precious metals from consumer and industrial electronics.
Digital Remanufacturing
Remanufacturing can reduce new material requirements by 80-98% when compared to new build production.
Recycling & Material Recovery
The REMADE Institute and its members are developing advanced technologies to dramatically increase the collection, sorting, separation, reprocessing, chemical recycling, solvent extraction, and purification of domestic plastic waste.
