Experience Nature; Act Sustainably

The innovative Re-Source recycled textile collection from Swiss textile manufacturer Schoeller Textil AG creates perfect symbiosis of textile performance and sustainability.

Performance inspired by nature

Whether for travel, everyday work, or demanding mountain tours – the sustainable textile innovations of Schoeller’s Re-Source collection guarantee maximum comfort, durability and weather protection in any environment.

Through recycling previously used materials, Re-Source creates environmental and social value in a holistic approach – for wearers, apparel brands and the planet.

“Our mission with Re-Source is to make nature tangible,” says Antonio Gatti Balsarri, chief commercial officer at Schoeller. “The recycled textile collection is part of Schoeller’s sustainability strategy, which aims to create a better future for people and the planet.”

Transparent production process

Re-Source gives bio-based, post- and pre-consumer materials, such as recycled polyester and spandex, new life in the form of high-performance textiles.

Two textile innovations in the collection are lined with natural Nativa Merino wool on the interior, produced 100 percent transparent and traceable using blockchain technology. Nativa farms worldwide meet strict social and environmental requirements for animal welfare (mulesing-free), land management and ethical labor guidelines.

Sustainability & multifunctionality

Re-Source textiles offer breathability, thermal regulation, as well as wind and water repellency in a wide range of application situations.

The resistant and durable Q-cycle polyamide is obtained by pyrolysis of used tires, thus saving CO2 emissions compared to the incineration process. All

Re-Source textile innovations are Bluesign Approved.

“Every element within the Re-Source collection has been carefully and thoughtfully researched and developed with nature in mind,” says Hans Kohn, COO, Schoeller Technologies AG.
