100% Cotton Clips

PrecisionTex recycled cotton comes exclusively from garment clips and loom scraps meticulously sorted by color at our plants in Spain, Bangladesh, and Central America. This process guarantees high-quality fiber without the need for additional dyeing, dramatically reducing environmental impact and offering textile brands a sustainable alternative without compromising quality.

With GRS (Global Recycled Standard) certification, our recycled cotton meets the highest international standards for traceability, recycled content, and social responsibility. Each kilogram of recycled cotton saves approximately 10,000 liters of water—the amount needed to grow virgin cotton—while eliminating the use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers.

PrecisionTex 100% recycled cotton is obtained through a rigorous process of selection and sorting of post-industrial clips. Clips are waste generated during the garment manufacturing process in textile factories, before the product reaches the end consumer. These materials, with known composition and controlled quality, are ideal for mechanical recycling.

Our process begins with the collection of pure cotton clips from associated garment factories. Once at our facilities, the material undergoes thorough color classification, which maintains the original fiber tone and eliminates the need for subsequent dyeing processes. This chromatic classification is one of PrecisionTex's specialties, the result of 25 years of experience in the sector.

Subsequently, the sorted clips are mechanically processed to unravel the fabric and convert it back into loose fiber. This mechanical process preserves the integrity of the cotton fibers, maintaining their length and strength. The resulting fiber is comparable in quality to medium-grade virgin cotton fiber, perfectly suitable for spinning mills that will produce new yarns and fabrics.

Fashion and Apparel Industry PrecisionTex recycled cotton is widely used by fashion brands committed to sustainability. The fiber is used in manufacturing t-shirts, sweatshirts, cotton pants, sportswear, and casual garments. Brands especially value the ability to obtain fiber already sorted by color, which simplifies their production chain and reduces dyeing costs.

Home Textiles Recycled cotton fiber is ideal for producing home textiles such as sheets, towels, blankets, curtains, and upholstery. Its natural softness and absorbency make it perfect for these uses, while GRS certification allows manufacturers to offer certified sustainable products to increasingly conscious consumers.

Non-Woven Products Beyond traditional textile applications, recycled cotton is used in manufacturing non-woven products such as wipes, pads, eco-friendly diapers, industrial filters, and thermal and acoustic insulation materials. These applications take advantage of cotton's natural properties without requiring extremely long fibers.

Massive Water Savings Virgin cotton cultivation is one of the most water-intensive agricultural processes on the planet. Approximately 10,000 liters of water are needed to produce a single kilogram of virgin cotton. By using recycled cotton, this water demand is completely eliminated, significantly contributing to water resource conservation in a context of growing global scarcity.

Carbon Footprint Reduction The mechanical cotton recycling process consumes significantly less energy than growing, harvesting, transporting, and processing virgin cotton. Studies indicate that recycled cotton can reduce CO₂ emissions by up to 65% compared to conventional cotton. This reduction is critical for the textile industry to achieve its carbon neutrality goals.

Elimination of Agricultural Chemicals Virgin cotton cultivation requires large amounts of pesticides, herbicides, and chemical fertilizers that contaminate soils and aquifers. Recycled cotton completely eliminates this problem since it requires no agricultural cultivation. This protects biodiversity, the health of agricultural workers, and water quality in producing regions.

Textile Circular Economy By converting post-industrial waste into valuable raw material, PrecisionTex closes the material cycle in the textile industry. Clips that were previously incinerated or ended up in landfills are now reintegrated into the production chain, reducing waste generation and dependence on virgin raw materials.
