Indorama Ventures is taking a practical step toward more circular textiles for homes and public spaces. The company now offers Trevira® flame-retardant fibers and filament yarns made with 50% recycled textile content, supporting fabric makers who want to reduce reliance on virgin materials while maintaining established performance standards.
The new fibers and yarns are designed for use in Trevira CS fabrics, which have been widely used in contract interiors and public spaces for decades due to their permanent flame-retardant properties. By integrating recycled textile material, Indorama Ventures is expanding the sustainability profile of these materials without changing how they perform in everyday use.
According to Jesper Nielsen, Global Key Account Manager Flame Retardancy at Indorama Ventures, the development is made possible through the company’s joint venture with Jiaren Chemical Recycling. The recycler processes textile waste from both consumers and industrial sources into recycled polyester chips. These chips are then used to produce Trevira® high-modified flame-retardant fibers and filament yarns. Fabrics made from these materials can qualify for the Trevira CS Eco brand, allowing manufacturers to signal their commitment to circular material use.
The partnership with Jiaren Chemical Recycling was announced in November 2025 and reflects Indorama Ventures’ broader focus on scaling textile circularity. The Trevira® fibers and yarns with recycled content are one of the first tangible outcomes of this collaboration.
First customers were introduced to the new offering at the Heimtextil trade show in Frankfurt in mid-January. For fabric producers, the development offers a more resource-conscious option that aligns with growing demand for recycled content, while still meeting strict safety requirements for interior textiles.
