Why 100% recycled cotton is unique
We turn cotton factory waste into premium-quality cotton using a patented 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 patent is unique in the mechanical textile recycling industry.
Quality Meets Scale
By carefully selecting and checking the right waste at the start of the supply chain, we can mix batches to consistently achieve superior quality — and scale production to meet each customer’s demand. We produce all batches made to order to minimize waste and environmental impact.
We have much more to share about how we ensure that our supply chain is fully transparent and sustainable. Curious to learn how?

We translate your product requirements into precise raw material needs, ensuring the perfect foundation for production.
A carefully selected mix of cotton waste is collected, reprocessed, and thoroughly checked to guarantee consistent quality.
Using our patented technology, 100% recycled cotton is spun into premium yarn by certified spinners.
The yarn is woven into high-quality fabric in solar-powered, certified facilities committed to clean energy and excellence.
Each product is crafted in socially certified facilities that prioritize worker well-being and sustainable production methods.
Finished products are shipped by sea from India to Europe and delivered directly to your chosen warehouse — efficiently and responsibly.
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.
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.
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.

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.
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.
