Renewcell and Kelheim Fibres Form Collaboration to Establish a European Closed Loop for Fashion

STOCKHOLM, SE / ACCESSWIRE / October 19, 2021 / Re:NewCell AB (publ) (FRA:6QP) (STO:RENEW) Today, Renewcell and Kelheim Fibres Gmbh have signed a Letter of Intent for a long term commercial collaboration to add the crucial missing link for a circular economy for textiles in Europe. Together, the two technology leaders will collaborate on developing commercial scale production of superior quality viscose fibers from up to 10 000 tonnes of Renewcell's 100% textile recycled material Circulose® annually. The collaboration paves the way toward a fully European closed loop in which textile waste is collected, recycled and regenerated into new Circulose® fibers for people that want to reduce their fashion footprint significantly.

"European fashion consumption has great impact on climate and the environment globally. It also contributes to tremendous amounts of waste going into landfill and incinerators either in Europe or abroad after export. We will now work with Kelheim to prevent waste and reduce the need for virgin resources, while also enabling a fully regional supply of low impact circular fibers for textiles" comments Patrik Lundström, CEO of Renewcell. "We are thrilled for the opportunity to work closely with a partner like Kelheim, who is at the leading edge of innovation and sustainability in this industry" he adds.

Craig Barker, CEO at Kelheim Fibres adds: "We see an excellent fit between our two companies, not only on the technical side - with Renewcell we have found a highly professional partner who shares our vision for future-forward technologies that enable full circularity in the textile chain. Finding the answers to the challenges of our times is what drives us every day.
Our recycled cellulose fibre solution - made of Renewcell's Circulose® and manufactured using environmentally sound processes at our Kelheim plant - is an answer to the fashion industries need for sustainable, resource- and waste-reducing solutions, and a more regional and reliable supply chain."

New Pharma AI Findings Reveal the Real Barrier to Scale: Execution, Not Innovation15.6.2026 12:00:00 CEST | Press release

GENEVA, SWITZERLAND AND WARSAW, POLAND / ACCESS Newswire / June 15, 2026 / Pharma companies are no longer struggling to identify AI opportunities - they are struggling to scale them. New findings from Lingaro, based on research with 150 senior pharma and life sciences leaders, show that AI has strong strategic visibility across the sector, yet most organizations lack the foundations needed to turn early momentum into consistent business impact. Nearly 60% of respondents say their AI strategy lacks clear ownership, highlighting a gap between leadership ambition and operational accountability. Without defined business ownership and success metrics, many companies remain stuck between experimentation and scaled delivery. Data is another barrier. According to the research, 67.3% of pharma leaders report fragmented or only partly reliable data. In a sector where commercial, medical, regulatory, and patient data often sit in disconnected systems, poor data quality can delay decisions, reduce
