BlockTexx

BlockTexx is a clean technology company based in Loganholme, Queensland, that recovers polyester and cellulose from commercial textile waste using a proprietary chemical separation process. The organization utilizes its patent-pending Separation of Fibre Technology to process hard-to-recycle fabric blends, such as polyester and cotton, achieving an approximate 95 percent material recovery rate. Operating Australia's first dedicated textile recycling center, the enterprise charges commercial clients an estimated $300 per tonne to divert unwanted clothing, bedsheets, and towels from local landfills. The recovered materials are subsequently converted into high-quality inputs for manufacturing new products across various industrial sectors. The company employs approximately 30 people at its primary facility and operates under a leadership team that includes industry professionals Stephen Evans, Di May, and Anna Minns. BlockTexx was established in 2018 by co-founders Graham Ross and Adrian Jones.
