At present, the economics again do not stack up. However, we have just started a co-operative project with Brintons, taking carpet edges from production in Kidderminster, re-pulling them back into fibre form and then putting them into carpet underlay. Because the waste is generally 80% wool or so, it is eminently suitable and provides good compression performance in the underlay and the product passes BS5808, the Industry standard. How can companies develop and grow in this area? A personal view, is that the key is designing and developing products to meet a technical specification for use in ‘added value’, technically demanding applications.
