A Madrid-based producer of recycled cotton fiber, Recover aims to expand by launching a new manufacturing facility in Vietnam by early 2025.
To be located in the Dong Nai province, the state-of-the-art facility will leverage Recover’s advanced recycling technology to enhance fiber recovery in Vietnam, the world’s third-largest textile exporter.
Strategically selected for its proximity to textile waste sorting and manufacturing operations, the facility helps reduce logistics costs and environmental impact. It allows Recover to supply materials to major textile production markets with more efficiency.
Spanning across 14,000 sq m, the facility is scheduled to house two cutting-edge recycling lines with an annual production capacity of 10,000 tons. Additionally, it will feature a dedicated laboratory to ensure consistent product quality and drive continuous innovation in processes and materials.
The factory will also integrate RMix, Recover’s innovative solution for recycling cotton-polyester blends without separating fibers. This breakthrough technology addresses a long-standing challenge in poly cotton recycling and offers significant energy efficiency benefits, supporting more sustainable practices.
By introducing the company’s advanced technology in Vietnam, Recover not only enhances its service to customers by expanding its manufacturing facility but also makes a transformative shift towards circularity in Vietnam’s textile industry, says Anders Sjoblom, CEO.
A family-owned company with a 75-year legacy in textiles, Recover has been a pioneer of large-scale fiber recycling. Having established its second manufacturing facility in Bangladesh in 2022, the company continues to lead the way in sustainable textile solutions.
