As part of the partnership, Arvind has committed to purchase Circ’s lyocell staple fiber and polyester chips for integration into their large-scale apparel and garment manufacturing operations for a period of five years. The agreement marks a significant step forward in scaling access to Circ’s recycled polyester and lyocell products and will expand the availability of next-gen recycled fibers to the global brands Arvind serves—accelerating the adoption of textile-to-textile materials across the industry. 

“This partnership continues a new chapter in the textile industry where scale and sustainability work hand in hand,” said Peter Majeranowski, CEO of Circ. “By joining forces with one of the largest players in global textiles, we’re making textile-to-textile fibers available to more brands and unlocking circularity at true commercial scale.” 

Arvind is renowned for its leadership in textiles and advanced textiles, as well as its commitment to innovation and sustainability. With its extensive global supply chain relationships and large customer base, Arvind will help accelerate the commercialization of Circ’s circular materials and bring them into widespread use. 

The partnership builds on a longstanding relationship between the two companies, including multiple product trials and collaborative initiatives—most notably Circ’s Fiber Club. As an established manufacturer, Arvind’s ability to purchase and integrate recycled fibers into its own production processes means that multiple brands can now access Circ’s circular inputs. 

“Our partnership with Circ brings innovative, recycled materials into our supply chain at scale. It enables us to offer our brand partners high-quality, circular fiber solutions that align with our commitment to the future of sustainable fashion,” said Abhishek Bansal, Senior Vice President – Sustainability, Arvind Limited 

The collaboration is expected to drive broader impact across the industry, lowering the barrier for brand partners to incorporate next-gen fibers and expand the reach of circular materials throughout the global apparel supply chain.
