Brightfiber x MARTAN proudly present their first iconic circular knitwear line

An Amsterdam-born collaboration setting a new benchmark for truly sustainable, circular knitwear.

Pioneering circular yarns

The new knitwear line is the result of an intensive collaboration between MARTAN and Brightfiber. Brightfiber is known for its groundbreaking technology that automatically sorts textile waste at fibre level and transforms it into new fibres, yarns and fabrics of exceptional quality.

By selecting discarded garments based on composition and colour, Brightfiber can create entirely new materials without the use of dyes or the addition of non-recyclable fibres. The result: premium knitwear made from locally recycled cotton, designed for circularity from the very first stitch.

Life Cycle Analysis: Follow the circular journey

Here you can explore the circular journey of the Bright Heavy Knit Sweater β€” a sweater that travels across Europe, from raw material to finished piece, with every step made visible.

This is more than just a garment: it’s a concrete example of how fashion can be produced in a truly circular way. From carefully selected fibres to responsible energy use, every phase is mapped out to show what it takes to make clothing that respects people, materials and the planet.
