Recover™ is a Dual Category Winner in the 2025 Just Style Excellence Awards

Recover™, a leading materials science company specializing in recycled cotton fibers, has been recognized with two prestigious awards in the 2025 Just Style Excellence Awards: one for Business Expansion and another for Environmental Impact.

Business Expansion

These awards highlight the company’s strategic global growth and its commitment to sustainability in the textile industry, which currently recycles less than 0.3% of its waste. Recover™ has expanded its operations by establishing recycling facilities in key textile regions including Spain, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Vietnam, and El Salvador. This global footprint allows the company to source post-industrial textile waste efficiently and support brands with reliable, low-impact supply chains. The new Vietnam facility and the joint venture with Intradeco in El Salvador are particularly notable, enhancing Recover™’s capacity and responsiveness to shifting trade dynamics.

Environmental Impact

In addition to its expansion, Recover™ has demonstrated environmental leadership through its rigorous, transparent approach to sustainability. The company conducts Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs) at its facilities, using ISO standards and third-party verification to measure its environmental impact. These assessments reveal that Recover™’s recycled cotton fibers save up to 99.9% of water, 93% of CO₂ emissions, and 96% of energy compared to conventional cotton. In 2024 alone, the company conserved over 21 billion liters of water and prevented more than 20,000 metric tons of CO₂ emissions. Recover™ also upholds ethical sourcing practices, particularly in Bangladesh, ensuring safe labor conditions and compliance with global standards.

Traceability is a cornerstone of Recover™’s strategy, with physical and digital tracking systems enabling brands to verify recycled content and meet regulatory requirements. Collaborations with major retailers and platforms further reinforce its role in advancing circularity and transparency in the fashion industry. Through its scalable technology, responsible sourcing, and verified environmental impact, Recover™ empowers brands to make meaningful progress toward sustainability goals while maintaining quality and efficiency.
