OnceMore® join forces with LSJH to recycle household textile waste

OnceMore® are glad to announce the status of the ongoing and successful partnership with Lounais-Suomen Jätehuolto (LSJH) which started nearly two years ago – an excellent example of textile-to-textile collaboration in Scandinavia.

LSJH is a Finnish municipal waste management company who are focusing on finding circulatory solutions for all household textile waste in Finland. LSJH and OnceMore® shares the same mission to be an active player in the European textile industry transition into a real circular economy.

-  We at OnceMore® are very proud to have LSJH as a partner. They are pioneering solutions for post-consumer textile waste collected from households, a valuable feedstock that holds significant potential in our view. We will keep developing our partnership and feedstock so that fashion brands like Lindex can keep producing clothes made out of recycled textiles, says Sourcing Manager Åsa Alvhage.

The success of this collaboration, between OnceMore® and LSJH, relies on good communication, high material quality, steady flow and long-term commitment to further develop partnership as both companies share a common goal - to reduce the existing textile waste problem for households. Recent advances in OnceMore® processing have made it possible to utilize even more diverse feedstock material from LSJH.

-  Finding solutions for heterogeneous household end-of-life textiles might seem like an impossible task. We sort by material content to offer our customers a portfolio of GRS-certified products to meet their feedstock needs, says Anna Garton, Post-Consumer Textiles Expert at LSJH.
