Fiber Club
RE&UP has officially launched RE&UP Fiber Club, a new collaborative initiative aimed at accelerating the large-scale adoption of premium recycled textile materials. Developed from a consortium framework originally created by Fashion for Good, the initiative is designed to overcome traditional supply chain challenges and support the wider adoption of circular materials across the fashion industry.
The use of high-quality recycled textiles has often been limited by fragmented supply chains, high minimum order quantities (MOQs), and significant upfront costs. These challenges have prevented many sustainability projects from progressing beyond small-scale pilot programmes. Through the launch of Fiber Club, RE&UP aims to remove these barriers and enable the commercial adoption of recycled materials on an industrial scale.
“The technology to recycle textiles is only half the battle; the real hurdle is commercial alignment. With RE&UP and its Fiber Club, the baseline for high-volume, compliant circularity is active and operationally ready today. We are giving forward-thinking brands the plug-and-play infrastructure required to stop experimenting with sustainability and start scaling it,” said Andreas Dorner, General Manager of RE&UP.
