CYCLO Recycled Fibers

What CYCLO Recycled Fibers does

CYCLO Recycled Fibers is a Bangladesh-based B2B manufacturer of premium recycled cotton yarn serving the global fashion and apparel industry. Founded in 2010 (with one firmographic source citing 2009), the company operates a proprietary six-step mechanical recycling process — Sourcing, Sorting, Recycling, Blending, Carding, and Spinning — that converts pre-consumer textile waste, primarily cotton cuttings from T-shirt production, into virgin-quality yarn without water, dyes, or chemicals. The firm runs a 25-tonne-per-day production facility in Bhaluka, Mymensingh, with a head office in Dhaka, and a Singapore-registered entity; its 40+ customer base includes H&M, Zara, and Bestseller, with H&M disclosed at 1,800+ tonnes per season.

The product platform centers on CYCLO® Recycled Yarn, offered in standard blends of 50–70% recycled cotton paired with recycled polyester, viscose, acrylic, EcoVera™, or Tencel™. Differentiation rests on two embedded technology integrations: the Aware™ physical tracer combined with blockchain authentication for end-to-end supply chain traceability and Digital Product Passport readiness against incoming EU and US textile mandates, and ISO 14040-compliant Life Cycle Assessment data delivered through a partnership with Made2Flow. Membership in the Recycled Claim Standard (RCS) and Global Recycled Standard (GRS) provides third-party chain-of-custody validation for sustainability-focused brand procurement.

CYCLO operates a direct enterprise sales motion — technical consultation, custom blend development, and sample-based engagement to integrate into existing brand supply chains — under a B2B quote-based pricing model typically structured as multi-year supply contracts. Public pricing is not disclosed. The firm markets through a content-rich website, downloadable impact reports and lookbooks, and active social channels (LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook), with PR coverage in fashion industry media. No funding rounds, revenue figures, or Bangladesh headcount are publicly disclosed; the 1–10 employee count on file reflects only the Singapore-registered entity.

Emerging players

• Worn Again Technologies: Worn Again Technologies (UK) is a chemical-recycling startup that separates and recycles polyester and cotton from end-of-life textiles into virgin-equivalent raw materials. It targets the same circular textile value chain as CYCLO but uses a different (chemical) technology pathway.
• Renewcell (Circulose): Renewcell produces Circulose®, a dissolving pulp made from 100% recycled textiles (cotton-rich blends) via chemical recycling, supplying MMCF producers. Under new ownership post-2024 restructuring, it competes for the same brand recycled-material commitments using a complementary chemical-recycling approach.
• Infinited Fiber Company: Infinited Fiber Company (Finland) produces Infinna™, a regenerated cellulose fiber from textile waste using a chemical/ionic liquid process. While using a different technology pathway, it competes with CYCLO for sustainable fiber sourcing commitments from the same fashion brand customers.
• Circulary / Circ®: Circ is a US-based textile recycling company using a hydrothermal process to recycle poly-cotton blends into virgin-equivalent raw materials. It is in early commercialization and competes for the same brand sustainable-yarn sourcing commitments, though with broader feedstock capability than CYCLO's cotton-only process.

Broad incumbents

• Hyosung TNC (regen fibers): Hyosung TNC is a Korean chemical/textile major producing regen polyester (regen), creora® spandex from recycled materials, and other sustainable fibers. As a large incumbent with broad sustainable fiber portfolios, it competes with CYCLO for brand sustainable-material commitments.
• Aquafil (ECONYL®): Aquafil (Italy) produces ECONYL®, a regenerated nylon yarn made from nylon waste including fishing nets and fabric scraps. While focused on nylon rather than cotton, it is a prominent sustainable regenerated yarn brand supplying the same fashion/apparel customers and competing for ESG-driven material commitments.
• Unifi (Repreve®): Unifi is a major US-based yarn manufacturer whose Repreve® recycled polyester is one of the most widely adopted sustainable fibers in apparel. While focused on recycled PET rather than cotton, it competes for sustainable-yarn share-of-wallet with the same fashion brand customers as CYCLO.

Direct peers

• Re&Up: Re&Up (part of Kıpaş Holding) is a Turkey-based recycled fiber and yarn producer converting pre- and post-consumer textile waste into recycled cotton, polyester, and blended yarns for global fashion brands. It directly competes with CYCLO in the B2B recycled yarn market with comparable sustainability positioning and traceability claims.
• Sinterama: Sinterama (Italy) is a global producer of recycled and virgin polyester and polyamide yarns, including recycled cotton-blend options. It directly competes with CYCLO in supplying fashion brands with sustainable filament and staple yarns and operates at larger industrial scale across multiple geographies.
• Recover Brands (Recover™): Recover™ operates one of the world's largest mechanical recycled cotton fiber production facilities (Bangladesh) and supplies premium recycled cotton to major fashion brands including H&M. It is the closest direct competitor to CYCLO, using a similar low-water, low-chemical mechanical recycling process targeting pre-consumer cotton waste.
