## About Ambercycle

Ambercycle is a material science and R&D company based in Los Angeles, founded in 2013.

The company specializes in a chemical recycling technology known as "molecular regeneration," which transforms end-of-life textile waste into virgin-grade recycled polyester yarns. Its mission is to close the loop on polyester by converting discarded garments into premium raw materials, significantly reducing waste and carbon emissions in the fashion industry. The company's flagship product, cycora®, is a regenerated polyester fabric and pellet feedstock designed to replace virgin synthetic fibers in apparel manufacturing. Ambercycle provides material science solutions and B2B material sales to apparel brands and manufacturers, supporting them with sampling and commercialization. The company collaborates with various partners, including major global brands like Inditex (Zara) and H&M Group, to create a sustainable supply chain for its recycling process. With over $44 million in funding, Ambercycle aims to scale its operations and promote decarbonization across industries.
