Belgian spinning mill, European Spinning Group has launched a new ‘Green Collection’ of upcyled yarn from discarded jeans or recycled polyester, mixed with fibers such as such as Tencel®, rPET, raw white and dope dyed fibers. As per an Euratex report, the recycled yarn can be used for various high-end textile applications such as furnishing fabrics, fashion garments or technical textiles.

European Spinning Group has been continuously investing in modern machinery, besides producing in an ecological, energy-efficient way with integrated waste management systems. The Group also offers a wide range of high-quality ecological solutions. The group also launched the #hackyourjeans project as an online and offline platform. The platform focuses on stimulating circular product development and co-creation, increasing awareness and social impact by providing full transparency about the production process and visualizing products with online and offline presence.

The #hackyourjeans project offers a new and unique way of industrial collaboration, where knowledge on the production side and feedback from the end consumer is continuously shared, in a very open way. This facilitates product development and accelerates market development.

European Spinning Group also works with an impartial company, REMOkey to calculate the environmental savings of different yarns and communicate them transparently throughout the supply chain.
