Circulose, a Swedish textile recycling company, has introduced CIRCULOSE® Forward. This new platform is designed to help fashion brands incorporate circular materials into their products and supply chains. The initiative supports Circulose's goal of promoting sustainability in the fashion industry by offering comprehensive solutions beyond pulp production.
The platform includes a CIRCULOSE® Material Library, a curated selection of pre-priced material options. It also features a CIRCULOSE® Forward Price Calculator for estimating costs. An updated Supplier Network connects brands with manufacturers experienced in sustainable practices.
This launch follows Circulose's strategic partnership with Mango, a leading international fashion brand. The collaboration, announced on June 19, 2025, aims to enhance textile circularity within Mango's supply chain. Fibers derived from Circulose pulp will be integrated into upcoming product collections.
Circulose, formerly Renewcell, was acquired by Altor in June 2024 after filing for bankruptcy. The company specializes in recycling plant-based and cellulose fibers. They produce CIRCULOSE®, a regenerated material made from 100% discarded textiles.
The launch of CIRCULOSE® Forward and the Mango partnership highlight Circulose's commitment. They provide brands with the tools to transition towards more sustainable practices.
