22 July 2024, Vienna, Austria – RTDS Group, a leading nonprofit organization in Austria
supporting European research and innovation actions, has launched the CELLFIL project.

This initiative, part of the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme, is formed by fifteen partners from eight countries.

The centrepiece of this 4-year project is the sustainable and robust production of lyocell
filaments. By optimising the entire fabric production process and its intermediate processing
steps, the aim is to replace synthetic fibers with environmentally friendly lyocell filaments in
recyclable end applications. This approach aims to develop and utilise alternative raw
material sources for textiles.
