Road to 100% Recycled Denim
Alongside certification, [Brand Name] continues its Road to 100 initiative, aiming to create jeans made entirely from post-consumer recycled materials. A prototype has already been achieved at lab scale. Current production averages 40–45% recycled content, with a target to exceed 50% this year, before progressing toward 75% and ultimately 100%.
Setting Industry Standards
For TESTEX, the certification represents a new benchmark for the textile sector. By providing standardised methods and independent validation, it allows brands to demonstrate real impact and creates comparability across the industry.
With TESTEX Circularity we wanted to provide a clear and credible framework built on durability, repairability, and recyclability. Our vision is to make this a trusted tool for the textile industry — one that gives brands a measurable, transparent path toward true circularity.” said Karin Lindmark, Market Development Manager at TESTEX.
