For over 20 years, TEXTILE house has been promoting circularity by repurposing discarded textiles into reusable resources, which are reintegrated into the economy through our network of secondhand & vintage clothing stores - and global business partnerships.

With a 16,000 m2 sorting center and a 2,500 m2 recycling facility in Slovakia, the company will process around 30,000 tons of textiles in 2026.

• Reuse, Recycling, and Minimal Waste Footprint Across Europe:

Adhering to the EU’s waste hierarchy, we focus on maximizing reuse — approximately 75% of its processed materials find new life, mostly through its network of 175 second-hand and vintage shops spread across 11 European countries.

The remaining 20% is sorted for recycling, contributing to a minimal waste footprint of less than 5%, which is utilized as solid recovery fuel.

By emphasizing reuse and promoting recycling, we're not just diverting waste from landfills but also promoting sustainable consumption practices.

• Industry Compliance, Data-driven Sorting, Textile Sorting Technology and Cross-Border Partnerships:

Our dedication to sustainability is reinforced by the compliance with the Textile Recovery Certification Scheme from KIWA (VHT [NL]), affirming our commitment to high-quality operations and systematic textile recovery processes.

Innovative use of data analytics and radio-frequency identification (RFID) solutions enhances sorting accuracy and traceability, while partnerships with technology providers aim to develop efficient sorting solutions tailored to textile waste management challenges. 

Additionally, as the sole sorting operator under the Refashion (textiles PRO [FR]) agreement in Central and Eastern Europe, we demonstrate our acknowledgment of textile extended producer responsibility and also the significance of cross-border partnerships.
