These two innovative textile leaders, each handling different parts of the supply chain, aim to leverage their combined expertise to promote the use of sustainable materials in the industry.

Recognizing the importance of responsible raw materials, Valdese Weavers offers a collection of environmentally conscious products. Through the partnership with RecoverTM, they plan to provide top-quality decorative fabrics made with RCS/GRS verified Recover™ recycled fiber, helping brands and retailers reduce their environmental impact from using new raw materials.

Recover’s expertise in producing low-impact, high-quality recycled fibers aligns with their shared goals of minimizing the impact on natural resources.

The first fabrics resulting from the partnership, made with RecoverTM fiber, will be showcased at Valdese Weaver’s showroom in High Point, NC during the Interwoven market from November 14-16, 2023.
