SINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire - 8 July 2025 - REMONDIS and H&M Group formed a joint venture, Looper Textile Co, an independent company that collects, sorts and enables reuse and recycling of textiles.

Smart Solutions for Circular Textile Flows

Looper Textile Co. is an independent joint venture owned by H&M Group and REMONDIS. The company has set itself the goal of collecting and sorting used clothing and textiles for reuse and recycling in order to make the best possible use of these valuable resources. "The need for collection and sorting solutions has never been greater, and Looper is uniquely positioned to drive meaningful change," says Erik Lagerblad, CEO of Looper Textile Co.

"Used textiles are one of the largest material flows in the world. We rely on digital solutions and our expertise in the circular economy to efficiently coordinate the movement of collected volumes of 150 million pieces per year. Together, we want to take the sustainable use of textiles into the future," commented Simon Bodmer, Head of Logistics Department at REMONDIS Recycling GmbH & Co. KG.

Rhenus 4PL Control Tower for transparency in Looper's supply chain

As part of the project, Rhenus 4PL Solutions GmbH is deploying its 4PL Control Tower – a central digital platform that enables real-time coordination and monitoring of all logistics activities across the supply chain. As a Fourth Party Logistics (4PL) provider, Rhenus assumes overarching responsibility for managing logistics partners and processes. The system has been specifically tailored to support the requirements of the circular economy, ensuring full transparency, optimized material flows, and efficient, data-driven supply chain operations. In a circular project like Looper Textile Co., the Control Tower plays a key role in enabling textile reuse and recycling by seamlessly coordinating all stakeholders and creating end-to-end visibility.

"Our 4PL Control Tower provides a central platform for the coordinated and integrated management of all logistics activities and increases visibility along the entire value chain. This is crucial to achieving Looper Textile Co.'s goals," explains Chris Gerfertz, Managing Global Director at Rhenus 4PL Solutions. "We're proud to contribute to the success of Looper Textile Co. by providing digital supply chain visibility and management through our 4PL Control Tower. As part of the Rethmann Group, it's great to see how REMONDIS and Rhenus are combining their strengths in recycling and logistics to drive practical, scalable solutions for circular textile flows."
