The company<span class=\"startxt\">*<\/span><span class=\"startxt\">*<\/span>;s model contrasts sharply with that of France<span class=\"startxt\">*<\/span><span class=\"startxt\">*<\/span>;s Carbios. Syre has entered detailed engineering backed by investors and long-term purchase commitments from major brands including Nike and H&amp;M, while Carbios has faced financing delays at its European flagship plant and is simultaneously expanding towards China. The contrast highlights a larger shift in the industry: the next winners may not simply be those with the best recycling technology, but those able to secure financing, feedstock and long-term demand before construction begins.<\/p>\n<h3>\t<strong>Syre<span class=\"startxt\">*<\/span><span class=\"startxt\">*<\/span>;s Vietnam plant marks a major push towards gigascale recycling in Asia<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Syre<span class=\"startxt\">*<\/span><span class=\"startxt\">*<\/span>;s Vietnam project is among the sector<span class=\"startxt\">*<\/span><span class=\"startxt\">*<\/span>;s most ambitious gigascale recycling plans.
