Our vision:
A circular lifecycle for business textiles as part of the global transition to a sustainable future

Cibutex is a not-for-profit organization, a cooperative that was launched in 2021 by five textile service companies. Five companies with the same vision: the industry of business textiles needs to prepare and, where possible, lead the transition towards circularity. Just like the rest of the world.
