Paris headquartered textile-to-textile recycling company Reju is partnering with Cibutex, a cooperative of Dutch textile service and rental businesses who will supply raw materials derived from post-consumer textile waste to be transformed into regenerated Reju Polyester.

Reju Polyester will have a 50% lower carbon footprint than virgin polyester and will be produced at Reju’s Regeneration Hub Zero in Frankfurt, Germany which will be fully operational later this year.

Cibutex aims to close the loop on service textiles production, ensuring that B2B post-use textiles are collected and transformed into valuable new raw materials.

“Reju and Cibutex are joining forces to lead the change in creating a circular ecosystem for service textiles,” said Patrik Frisk, CEO of Reju. “The distinct approach of Cibutex in mobilising member companies aligns perfectly with our mission to regenerate textiles at scale.”

“Our cooperative was founded on the principle of fostering a circular textile economy,” added Jan Lamme, CEO at Cibutex. “Partnering with Reju will strengthen our ability to bring post-use business textiles back into the production cycle, achieving the essential traceability and quality.”
