SAVED UP TO NOW
FROM LINEAR TO CIRCULAR ECONOMY: CO-CREATION IS THE KEY
Closed loop solutions for the textile industry
LET'S CREATE TOGETHER
CLS-TEX INTERNATIONAL THIS IS WHAT WE STAND FOR
CLS-Tex stands for Closed Loop Solutions Textile and operates internationally for governments, companies and resellers. CLS-Tex relieves you of your concerns with advice and guidance, offers practical solutions and delivers products and services for your circular and corporate social responsibility goals.
The time has come for the textile industry - one of the biggest polluters in the world - to really change course. We will have to make progress together and speed up the development of circular solutions to lower the CO2
footprint and secure raw materials for the future.
The goal of the way in which CLS-Tex engages business, is to make this transition possible together: the circular economy is the way forward and CLS-Tex International is your guide.
CLS-Tex advises and directs you regarding all aspects of closed loop solutions, circular processes and products in the textile industry. We bring the right parties together for increasing and improving sustainable processes and we are the director within the textile products chain.
Read about our innovations, developments and co-operations
In 2012 Jukka Pesola (Pure Waste) and Rien Otto (CLS-Tex) met as winners of the ‘2012 Challenge Solution Textile’, set by the global innovation platform ‘LAUNCH Nordic’. From then on the two pioneers started working together. Recently they agreed on taking the next step and start closing the loop by presenting the extended label Pure Waste CLS Inside. Pure Waste products are initially already made from recycled textile. However, after their use they will be given yet another life: using the innovative HTEX technology, used clothing is being recycled into raw material for new yarns, fabrics and new garments. The return and recycle services as well as the recycling process are made possible by CLS-Tex’ innovative solutions. This way the loop will be entirely closed: waste will be raw material!
This weekend, during the tech festival Bright Day, the Ministry of Defense will show the extend of futurism within the armed forces. Not only with regard to their training methods, but certainly also with a view to the CO2 reduction they achieved in collaboration with CLS-Tex.
The National Inventors Day on November 23 at 'Soestdijk' Palace is the place to be inspired by the latest technologies, groundbreaking innovations and special inventions from the Netherlands. CLS-Tex and HTEX have been invited by the Ministry of Defense to present their innovative findings here.
How do we work?
At CLS-Tex, we believe that circular economy and corporate social responsibility are the solution to creating a sustainable world. When we turn waste into a raw material, we can reduce CO2
emissions. We believe in a joint responsibility for what we produce and consume; only if we work together, we can restore the balance between well-being and prosperity.
What can we do for you?
CLS-Tex organizes the entire logistics of the total chain for you and relieves you of your concerns. This means chain management for all partners involved and the guarantee that we monitor the chain of production and the (re)use of raw materials in a transparent manner through our in-house developed Passport for Textile: P4T® (real time track and trace system).

Passport for Textile: (P4T®)
As a chain director, CLS-Tex needs to know which materials are used in the chain and what their real-time location is in that chain. If we want to reuse a product tomorrow, we need to know how it is made today.
Our tool to close the circular chains, is our self-developed Passport for Textile: P4T® (real time track and trace system) which involves all partners in the chain. Raw materials and products receive unique batch codes, with which they can be followed through every phase of development, so that the raw materials can be made available for reuse. It is a database with information about materials provided with a Life Cycle Analysis: a management tool for purchase and inventory management and a track and trace system.
