Innovating For A Greener Tomorrow

As Selin Tekstil, we are one of the leaders in the Turkish textile industry’s journey towards sustainability.
Our efforts are driven by our commitment to reducing environmental impact, promoting circularity, and embracing renewable energy.
We place great importance on valuing both the environment and individuals. We recognize the requirements of current and future generations, along with the expectations from our planet and our industry. Our belief is that our business practices must be sustainable in economic, social, and environmental aspects.

Circularity Through Recycling

Thanks to our partnerships with SaXcell for chemical recycling and Side İplik for mechanical recycling, we transform waste into valuable resources and contribute to the circular economy.

SaXcell: SaXcell is a regenerated, man-made cellulose fiber produced from used cotton textiles. SaXcell fibers are perfectly suited for producing high-quality new textile products, whether for apparel or home textiles.

Side İplik: A yarn production facility experienced in mechanical recycling and reusing methods, specializing in regenerated high-quality yarns.

  • Renewable Energy and Environmental Impact

    In line with our goal to reduce our environmental footprint, we are undertaking significant energy-related initiatives. By installing solar panels, we have reduced our electricity consumption by approximately 80%. Additionally, we are transitioning from coal to natural gas for heating, aiming to reduce carbon emissions and contribute to a cleaner, more sustainable future.

    Sustainable Value Chain

    Our commitment to sustainability encompasses our entire value chain. We prioritize the use of sustainable cotton and aim to build a sustainable supply chain that ensures responsible sourcing and ethical practices. By focusing on minimizing waste and reusing materials whenever possible, we strive to reduce our environmental impact. With these efforts, we aim to create a more sustainable and responsible future for our industry.
