About PADE
Our Vision
PADE is committed to pioneering the circular economy for textiles. Our core vision is to transform discarded textiles—which currently hold no use value and are often destined for landfills or incineration—into valuable, stable, and high-quality raw materials for textile recycling.
We strive to integrate the entire upstream and downstream industry chain, from collection to re-spinning, to establish a transparent, traceable, and green textile recycling ecosystem. By doing so, we aim to help the fashion industry achieve sustainable development and meet the goal of net-zero carbon emissions, ensuring that every single thread is not wasted and doing our part to protect the planet.
Who We Are
PADE Technology was established in February 2023 through a technical collaboration with Professor J.J. Hsieh from the Institute of Optoelectronics at National Taiwan Normal University. Co-founded by CEO Liu Yao-Da and Professor Hsieh, we combine expertise in software development, AI algorithms, and near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy to solve the global crisis of textile waste.
We are dedicated to building a next-generation “Clothes-to-Clothes” regenerative pathway, moving beyond traditional methods to create a scalable, verified, and sustainable future for fashion.
