The New Challenge of the Industry: Recycled Yarns

By placing digital and innovation at the center of the textile industry, Hefa Group has delivered its exports to more than 80 countries from past to present by avoiding harmful chemicals in its production processes, using renewable energy, and focusing on leaving a better future for the industry and future generations by keeping levels of waste at minimum.

Hefa Group Redefines Textile, Shapes the Future!

By integrating technology at every stage from design to production of textile products; Hefa Group, which has increased its production capacity thanks to digitalization in its artificial leather, raw fabric knitting and dyeing factories, emphasized on the importance of environmental and social responsibility in textiles throughout this process.

PET bottles, which remain idle in the oceans and nature during the production process and harm the environment, are converted into yarn in recycling facilities. These threads, obtained by recycling plastic bottles, are used in fabric production for use in various areas of the facility. Yarns which used in many areas such as clothing, upholstery, artificial leather diapers, etc. ensure the continuity of the recycling process.

‘’Global Recycled Standard 4.0 Certificate is a Part of Our Social Responsibility’’

Murat Şahinler, Deputy Chairman of the Board of Directors of Hefa Group, one of Turkey's leading textile manufacturers and underlines the respect for nature, said the following, "Using recycled yarn in production is one of the cornerstones of doing business in accordance with the principles of environmental protection and sustainability. By holding this responsibility, we take important steps to reduce waste that harms the environment and protect natural resources. We will continue to maintain our commitment to leaving a cleaner environment for future generations. We contribute to the "Circular Economy" by using recycled yarns obtained from PET bottles.

The steps we take in sustainability and environmental protection support Hefa Group to move forward in line with its vision and to increase its influence in the sector. On this path, in addition to the use of recycled yarn, we will continue to adopt environmentally friendly production processes and progress in the field of sustainability from a broader perspective. We have clearly documented that our products contain recycled materials by obtaining the Global Recycled Standard 4.0 (GRS Certificate), which aims to reduce or eliminate the harmful effects of production both on humans and on the environment by taking into account environmental principles, social requirements and chemical content. This document expresses a commitment to produce by considering both environmental principles and social needs."
