Welcome to this special episode of @AuManufacturing Conversations with Brent Balinski, one which we're running as part of our quest to identify Australia’s 50 Most Innovative Manufacturers.
The 50 Most Innovative is an annual campaign by @AuManufacturing. This time around it has been made possible through the generous support of MYOB, CSIRO, and the NSW government’s Advanced Manufacturing Research Facility.
In this episode, BlockTexx co-founder Graham Ross tells us about a passion for marathons and triathlons brought him to sustainability in textiles, why recycling is a great way to go broke if you don’t do it right, what needs to change to improve the way industry and researchers work together, and more.

Episode guide

0:56 – How they got started and what they do: chemical separation allowing them to take polyester and cotton apart.

3:45 - SOFT and how it works.

6:10 – Recovery rates and not creating another waste stream.

8:44 – Making a viable business within recycling is a challenge. Here’s how they approached it.

11:10 – The two products they can create from mixed fabrics. Plus downstream products like hydro-mulch and building materials.

13:30 – We need more recyclers, and more recyclers working together.

15:30 – Planning to expand via a licensing model and why it makes sense.

17:36 – Innovation is hard, especially so in manufacturing.

20:45 – Something that benefits society, changing its direction in a positive way.

22:38 – How they approached collaborating with QUT, CSIRO and others, why it mattered, and how you can get business and researchers to cooperate more effectively.

24:20 – Potential and unnecessary arguments over IP when a technology is nowhere near being commercial, and how to avoid them.

26:43 – Innovation should be a business mandate, not a “nice to have”.
