The Spanish recycling pioneer Recover and the traceability of TextiGENENESIS, a company of the French Lectra Group, have started a joint pilot project. The aim is to make the traceability of recycled cotton and polycotton fibers digitally image along the entire supply chain.
Cooperation is in accordance with the GRS certification and upcoming laws such as the EU’s digital product pass. “Traceability plays a crucial role in the underpinning of information about the circular economy and the preparation for the legal provisions,” says Orsolya Janossy, Senior Sustainability Manager at Recover.
Recover and TextiGelENESIS examine the possibilities of wider use of this technology in the global supply chain.
Recover was founded in Spain in 1914 as a textile company. The company has been dealing with the processing of textile waste since 1947. The company is currently supported by investors such as Goldman Sachs and the Fortress Investment Group and has already worked with fashion companies such as Primark and C&A.
TextiGENENESIS was founded in 2018 by Amit Gautam. The company enables fashion brands and sustainable textile manufacturers to digital tracing textiles – from fiber to retail. Last month, Gautam was appointed to the Executive Committee of the parent company Lectra. The customers of TextiGENENESIS include Kering, H&M and Ermenegildo Zegna.
