When RE&UP launched, the objective was not merely to construct a large-scale recycling infrastructure, but to demonstrate that the textile industry could operate with inherent transparency. Today, the company takes a significant step forward in that mission: RE&UP is officially a Certified B Corporation™.
This milestone represents an independent verification of the company’s day-to-day operational reality. It signifies that an external entity has audited RE&UP’s manufacturing facilities, governance structure, and supply chain, confirming that the organization meets rigorous B Lab Standards for performance, transparency, and accountability.
Addressing the global market shift
The global fashion brands partnering with RE&UP are navigating a rapidly evolving market where consumers and regulators demand concrete accountability regarding product lifecycles. Recent data from B Lab indicates that 90.7% of consumers believe company directors should be held accountable for social and environmental impact.
Furthermore, half of consumers under the age of 25 in the United States demonstrate active awareness of B Corps™, and 85% of those aware state it directly influences their purchasing decisions. By securing this certification, RE&UP directly supports its brand partners in meeting this market demand with absolute confidence.
“Today marks an important milestone for RE&UP as we become a Certified B Corporation™. This certification reflects our commitment to building an infrastructure where innovation, circularity, and operational responsibility operate in unison. It recognizes not only what we do, transforming textile waste into high-purity resources, but also how we do it: with transparency, accountability, and a long-term vision. This achievement is a testament to our team’s collective effort, and we remain dedicated to driving systemic, meaningful change across the global value chain.” Ebru Özküçük Güler, Chief Sustainability Officer, RE&UP
A continuous commitment to scale
RE&UP’s proprietary T2T technology was engineered to establish a stable, high-volume supply of high-quality materials. While this certification constitutes a company-wide verification rather than a specific product label, it honors the collective effort of the entire organization, from the R&D team to the executive leadership team.
As RE&UP joins a global community of businesses driving toward a more regenerative economy, the company remains focused on the next phase of its industrial roadmap: scaling to a 1-million-ton capacity.
