Ecotex Germany

30 years of experience

We have been active in the textile industry for more than 30 years. Our areas of expertise include collection, transport, and preparing clothes for further processing, recycling, and trade. In Germany, we collect unsorted (original) clothing which serves as the raw material for the production of carefully graded items. Our second-hand clothing comes from both container collections and from certified contractors. Visible waste is removed immediately at collection to prevent it from contaminating the original that we sell to our clients.

Container Service

At the request of our clients, we set up, move, and remove containers for used clothing. We also take care of their technical condition and visual appearance. As part of our comprehensive clothing collection service that we tailor to our business partners’ individual needs, we can order new containers with custom made stickers. As our partner you enjoy a carefree working relationship: Within 48 hours, we remove any excess clothing from the containers and their surroundings, quickly responding in emergency situations, such as e.g. citizens accidentally throwing valuable/private items into the container (when the container has not been emptied after the situation).

Responsible Sales

We sell unsorted used clothing in large quantities, shipping orders by 40ft HC sea freight containers, by road (loads of up to 20 tons per truck) or in smaller quantities with transport arranged by the customer. We are constantly expanding the network of our clients, giving clothes a second life and thus contributing to the effective reduction of waste.
