Better together!
- It's time to revolutionise textile recycling!
We are proud to announce our new partnership with Rester!
This collaboration opens exciting opportunities for both of us to serve the market with circular material and product solutions based on recycled textiles at scale.
Maria Ström, CEO of The Loop Factory and Anna-Kaisa Huttunen, Director of Partnerships at Rester.
Combining deep knowledge in building circular textile value chains, we are ready to revolutionise how recycled textile fibres can create new market opportunities in nonwoven materials.
Nonwoven is a robust technology with numerous application opportunities. It can accept both short and mixed secondary textile fibres as raw materials, which will add value to the circular textile landscape, and we will continue developing and refining the technology. With our joint strengths in fibre-opening know-how, production capacity, and nonwoven technologies, we can speed up the use and implementation of recycled textile fibres in different industrial processes.
Rester was founded in 2019 and today has the largest mechanical textile recycling centre in Northern Europe. Together, we can tackle the critical challenge of finding large-scale circular solutions for non-reusable textiles. Our strategic partnership will meet the growing need for innovative solutions and contribute to a circular textile landscape in the Nordic market.
"I sincerely believe in cross-company collaborations; it's where we can move forward faster. We are eager to start collaborating with Rester, experts in sourcing and preparing non-reusable textiles for recycling at scale. Their bold moves, curiosity, and forward-looking approach is a perfect match, and our partnership makes us well prepared to develop circular solutions based on recycled textiles," says Maria Ström, CEO of The Loop Factory.
We have strong expertise and a commitment to creating a systemic change for mechanical textile recycling. The partnership creates conditions for further developing and exploring nonwoven solutions for various applications and markets—the sky is the limit!
