About Reverse Resources

Reverse Resources (RR) is a software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform transforming the fashion industry’s approach to textile waste. We’re paving the way for a fully circular fashion industry by making textile waste a valuable resource. Our role is to trigger collaboration and assist in building best processes between fashion brands, their garment manufacturers, waste-handling partners and textile-to-textile recyclers to build feasible and transparent supply chains for textile waste. 

Founded in 2014, RR has been at the forefront of driving the circular agenda in the textiles and fashion industry. We work alongside key organisations in the circularity sector (incl. Global Fashion Agenda, Fashion For Good, H&M Foundation), as well as large global fashion brands and leading textile-to-textile recyclers. We serve as the data and traceability partner through our SaaS platform and as a key knowledge partner, sharing our hands-on experiences and insights. We work across the circular value chain, covering pre- and post-consumer textile waste streams. With multiple large projects starting in Vietnam to launch our service network in the country, we are now establishing our on-ground team there and looking for the first team member on the ground to carry the torch.
