Polopiqué is a leading textiles company that distinguishes itself by its innovation and verticality. The Portuguese company masters all stages of the textile production process, from spinning, weaving and finishing, to the design and commercialisation of high-quality products. By incorporating Recover fibre into its process, the two companies say they can support brands and retailers at every step in the supply chain and create an easy solution for brands to produce fully sustainable apparel, at scale.
Polopiqué says it is dedicated to scaling through the sustainable vertical integration of its production cycle into the industry’s value chain and its products to date contain at least 50% organic cotton and GRS certified recycled polyester.
With the adoption of Recover´s lowest-impact recycled cotton fibre, the company hopes to further reduce its ecological footprint.
