Looptworks Sustainability Profile

What do our labels mean?

Looptworks is a textile circularity company focused on keeping materials in use and out of landfill. Since 2009, it has repurposed excess materials into upcycled products and, in 2022, shifted to a B2B model centred on closed-loop solutions for global textile waste. The company says its work helps businesses conserve water, avoid carbon emissions, and meet environmental goals through sorting, deconstruction, mechanical recycling, downcycling, and fiber-to-fiber recovery. It also provides ESG metrics and reporting support aligned with GRI and SASB standards, including measurements for carbon emissions avoided, water conserved, and recycled materials used.

Provides ESG metrics

At Looptworks, we provide the metrics organizations need for their sustainability reporting, whether they follow Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) or Sustainable Accounting Standards Board’s (SASB) standards. Depending on the project, these measurements may include metric tons of carbon emissions avoided, gallons of water conserved, pounds of recycled materials used in place of virgin resources, and pounds of material cycled back into the economy versus ending up in landfills.

Built textile recycling facility

Today, we’re weeks away from kicking off operations—starting with vertical downcycling—at our 90,000-square-foot state-of-the-art facility in Gresham, Oregon. As we continue to build out our facility to offer automated sorting and deconstruction along with advanced fiber-to-fiber recycling, we are working to ensure that our space lives up to who we are as a brand.

Repurposed old building

We’re upcycling a 1970s building into a state-of-the-art facility. Looptworks is breathing new life into the building, reconstituting it back into a manufacturing environment.
