Verretex SA (Lausanne, Switzerland) and Fiberloop AB (Sävedalen, Sweden) are strategically collaborating, uniting both company’s work in the circular composites ecosystem.

Together, Verretex and Fiberloop will offer recyclers a complete, high-value solution for processing end-of-life (EOL) and production-scrap composites, combining Fiberloop’s recycling systems with Verretex’s industrial offtake of premium recycled glass fibers (rGF).

After extensive testing and qualification trials, Verretex has confirmed that fiber recovered from the Fiberloop process are among the highest-grade rGF currently available. The material demonstrated optimal consistency, strength and cleanliness, making it ideally suited for Verretex’s high-performance nonwoven textiles used in wind energy, mobility, construction and industrial applications.

As part of this collaboration, Fiberloop will provide recyclers with fully integrated composite recycling plants, while Verretex will act as a stable, long-term buyer of recycled fibers, ensuring customers have both the technology and the end market access required for profitable, scalable operations.

“This partnership closes the loop for composite recycling,” says Mitchell Anderson, CEO of Verretex. “Fiberloop delivers the most advanced recycling machinery we’ve tested, and Verretex delivers high-value applications for the resulting fibers. Together, we provide recyclers with everything they need to build a viable circular business model.”

Fiberloop technology is already proving its industrial viability. It is currently deployed by a customer operating in the boat recycling sector in partnership with Beneteau, Owens Corning, Veolia,and Chomarat. This real-world use case demonstrates the system’s robustness and its ability to meet demanding industrial specifications.

The Verretex-Fiberloop collaboration is designed to accelerate composites recycling in Europe and internationally. The companies are already working on deployment opportunities across North America, Europe, the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), and Asia, partnering with recyclers, OEMs and policymakers to help scale regional circular economy infrastructure.
