100% recycled, 100% in control 

Your stakeholders demand sustainability. We deliver it with our own supply chain and 10+ years of expertise.

nxtile's innovative way of working

We turn cotton factory waste into premium-quality cotton using a innovative process, where not only the fiber length of the cotton waste but also the arrangement of the fibers contributes to the strength and durability of our products. This is unique in the mechanical textile recycling industry.

Foundations of our Impact

Sustainability isn’t a goal; it’s a practice. We build our value chain on transparency, efficiency, and verifiable data to ensure every thread tells a story of integrity.

01

Traceability

Understanding where products come from and how they are made is essential to measuring impact. Our approach to traceability covers every stage of the supply chain.

02

Savings & Calculations

By using only cotton waste, we eliminate the need to grow fresh cotton, saving land, water, and avoiding CO₂ emissions. We make these savings transparent.

03

Reporting

We provide all the data you need
for ESG and sustainability
 reporting, from full supply chain traceability to detailed calculations on water, land, and CO₂ savings.

04

Compliance

At nxtile, we go further than most sustainability certification bodies. With full control of our supply chain, we meet common certifications and exceed them.

Traceability
Traceability & performance

Understanding where products come from and how they are made is essential to measuring real impact. Our approach to traceability covers every stage of the supply chain, from raw material sourcing to final delivery. By working with certified partners and clearly defined processes, we ensure consistency, accountability, and transparency throughout. This allows us to monitor both environmental and social performance at each step. The result is a supply chain that is not only traceable, but continuously improving.

From raw material to yarn

Product requirements are translated into raw material specs. Then, cotton waste is carefully collected and each batch is checked to ensure quality and uniformity. Using proprietary technology, this material is spinned into 100% recycled cotton yarn by certified partners.

From fabric to finished product

The yarn is woven into fabric in certified facilities powered by renewable energy and stitched in facilities with a focus on responsible working conditions. Each step is monitored to maintain quality and compliance standards. Finished products are transported by sea from India to Europe, for efficient and lower-impact logistics.

Savings
Savings & impact calculations

By using only cotton waste, we eliminate the need to grow fresh cotton, saving land, water, and avoiding CO₂ emissions. We make these savings transparent so our customers can use the data in reports, communications, and even on their products. 

  • Land savings: measured in m², representing land freed for other crops. 
  • Water savings: calculated in liters, representing water no longer needed for cotton farming. 
  • CO₂ avoidance: measured in kg, representing emissions avoided from cotton cultivation and harvesting. 
Reporting
Supporting your ESG reporting

We provide all the data you need for ESG and sustainability reporting, from full supply chain traceability to detailed impact calculations on water, land, and CO₂ savings. Our transparent approach ensures you can easily integrate verified sustainability insights into your reports, communications, and product information.

Compliance
Compliance beyond certification

At nxtile, we go further than most sustainability certification bodies. With full control of our supply chain, we meet common certifications and exceed them. Tailored to your needs, we can deliver the certifications you require. Our products keep you ahead of upcoming regulations like the Digital Product Passport and WPPR.

Our dragon network

Our dragon network: circularity by design

In our approach, we acknowledge that some waste is inevitable. But we aim to minimize it at every stage: production, use, and end of life. Producing high-quality textiles with minimal cutting waste, fair working conditions, and a long lifespan is already a challenge. By aligning supply and demand, we prevent overproduction. Our unique Dragon Network is an integrated supplier and logistics system that is designed to reduce waste and maximize material reuse.

Recycling cotton into textiles has been possible for years, but until now, it required adding new cotton or polyester fibers to stay strong and durable. nxtile products are different: using a patented process, 100% cotton waste is turned into high-quality, long-lasting items — without blends. As the first company in Europe to do this, your products achieve real environmental savings.

Your 100% recycled cotton product was made in India, where the cotton industry provides a steady supply of reusable cotton waste. Producing them closer to home isn’t feasible at scale yet.

  • Set the design and product specifications
  • Collect & process cotton waste – giving old fibers a new life
  • Spin into strong, soft yarn
  • Weave the fabric into durable, high-quality textiles
  • Add prints & patterns
  • Stitch into the final product
  • Deliver to you

The CO₂ from transporting our 100% recycled cotton products by container ship is very low compared to the emissions saved by avoiding new cotton growing and harvesting, so transportation adds only a small fraction to the overall environmental impact.
