Since my childhood, my grandmother taught me not to throw anything away, always recover clothes by transforming them into something else.
Always passionate about fashion, I taught myself to sew and create the models I wanted. My studies in architecture allowed me to acquire the precision necessary for the development of a pattern. Thanks to this, I worked in the fashion field, as a production manager in the “Mulieris” clothing workshop and as a seamstress in the “Recréart” boutique workshop specializing in the transformation of second-hand clothing.
While working at “Recréart” I realized that transforming clothes, giving them a second life, really appealed to me. In addition, the fruits of my labor sold well. I am passionate about creation.
I notice that in our consumer society, few people really pay attention to an important concept: recycling. Our planet does not have unlimited resources, so little by little we must take responsibility and begin to have a spirit of respect towards the planet.
By recycling, we prove and demonstrate that it is possible to live as eco-responsible people capable of not exaggerating the use of the Earth’s resources. Already in Belgium, more and more people are interested in organic products, I want to be part of this movement and produce clothes showing that the world of couture is not only pomp and luxury.
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.
