Green Sofiteks

Sofiteks is a non-polluter. Our energy conservation efforts reduce our impact on the environment.

As a zero landfill plant, all plant-wide waste is 100% recycled. We are committed to doing our part to help reduce, re-use and recycle any waste.

Environment

Sofiteks has been collaborating very closely with external specialists to ensure it is working to the very highest environment-friendly standards.

In addition Sofiteks makes sure that all our maintenance products are environment-friendly and that our looms are ultra modern and highly efficient.

We respect the environment not only inside our plant, but also around our premises, where we have established fully maintained Green zones.

Recycling

• Our textile waste is collected by recognized waste-recycling companies and recycled into various products.
• Unusable rest yarns are collected and re-worked into fibres for car interiors, for example as binding fibre.

Sorting

Apart from sorting textile waste, we also sort paper and carton for recycling, plastic, PMD, metals, lamps, domestic waste, pallets and oil residues.

What do we re-use?

• yarn tubes are used several times
• pallets are returned to external suppliers
• any remaining jute is collected and re-used in other products, for example in mattresses
• waste cotton is used internally as cleaning cloth
