RECYCLE DIFFERENTLY
RECYCLING WORN-OUT PROFESSIONAL CLOTHING
COMMITMENT N°7 - ENVIRONNEMENT
CEPOVETT has made recycling and the end of textile products' life cycle a priority in its CSR policy.
We offer innovative, tailor-made, socio-economic and environmental solutions with our leading partners. We collect, mass-market and recycle work clothing at the end of its life cycle through the implementation of textile recycling operations for the community. This recycling applies particularly to re-use in France or abroad, and unravelling fabric to create thermal and acoustic insulation for the automotive and housing industries.
Expanding collection, a challenge for reuse
Now that reuse is becoming part and parcel of everyday life and practices in Europe, CEPOVETT is going the extra mile to increase its end-of-service-life clothing collection from its customers. Suitable logistics and higher volume flows are key to establishing a secondhand sector.
In 2023, the Company wishes to increase its rate of
collection from customers and enhance its stock of clothing ready for reuse, in particular through incentive systems for wearers and special communication on the purpose of the recycling initiative. The Company, which has been committed to an ambitious workwear recycling approach with its customers since 2014, has been working with an efficient, easy-to-use collection tool for several years now, the "BoxTextile", for collecting post-consumer worn clothing from customers.
