Textile recycling company, with state-of-the art machinery. Belrey Fibres operates five fiber lines in Mouscron – Belgium with powerful tow cutters, pulling lines and integrated bale presses. Our yearly capacity reaches 10.000 tons of synthetic fibers such as nylon, polyester and polypropylene.
Over 90% of our production is exported. As we are one of the leading global companies in our area, we also have access to fibers worldwide, which means that we have the possibility to offer almost any material required.
Re-processed man-made fibers, custom-made
As a cost-effective and “greener” alternative to virgin materials, re-processed synthetic fibers serve as secondary material for non-woven products in a variety of industries including automotive, geotextiles, mattress, home furnishings, spinning and many more.
Through our customized blending and processing equipment we are able to produce a clean and homogenous material.
Saving costs through recycling
The recovery of waste materials as a secondary resource helps to cut down production costs by reducing raw material expenses.
We sort, grade and process about 50 tons of textile materials per day. We convert post-industrial filament-waste into reusable fibers. By working closely with our customers, we are helping to divert textile material from landfill and saving on virgin material costs.
Since our founding in 1959, we have continuously built on our future.
True to our roots as a family business, our employees, innovation and sustainability are at the heart of our activities.
