How Realfio contributes to recycling and traceability in the fashion industry.
Visit our facilities
Realfio is leading the sustainable transformation of the fashion industry with innovative sewing thread solutions that promote recycling, traceability, and the use of natural, recycled, and organic materials.
One effective way to achieve greater sustainability in fashion is to reuse existing materials rather than continually producing new ones.
In this context, Realfio provides certified sewing threads made from any raw material, including natural, organic, and recycled fibres, offering a solution to ensure that a final product is 100% recyclable.
The main challenge with post-consumer waste lies in the nature of the fibre, which can come from various materials, each requiring a different recycling process.
However, at Realfio, it is possible to select sewing threads without mixed materials.
The ability to classify a final product by material and guarantee the true composition of each item allows mechanical recycling with fewer resources and a reduced environmental impact.
Additionally, it makes the Digital Product Passport more complete and transparent regarding environmental and sustainability aspects, significantly validating the traceability of the product throughout its value chain.
By focusing on material recycling and traceability, we help companies not only reduce their environmental impact but also create more transparent and sustainable products.

Together, we can make textile recycling more feasible and strategic for every business, through sustainable, high-quality solutions tailored to the demands of a circular economy.
Over 30% of Realfio’s product range consists of sustainable materials, including natural, organic, vegan, and recycled fibres. All products maintain the quality characteristics of standard threads while significantly reducing environmental impact.
Realfio is aware of the challenges each company faces in the textile recycling process, while increasingly using high-quality products with a long lifespan and low environmental impact.
For this reason, Realfio prioritises the selection of sustainable raw materials to produce sewing threads that meet customer needs. Furthermore, its responsibility and industry expertise ensure strict internal policies for reducing environmental impact.
Realfio strives daily to be the most innovative company in industrial sewing thread design, sustainable processes, and controlled materials, supporting the various sectors of the textile industry in an increasingly responsible and environmentally friendly production.
With sewing threads derived from carefully selected sustainable raw materials, Realfio can offer clients products that meet the highest standards of circular economy and recycled materials.
All products produced by Realfio are fully recyclable and can be returned to biological cycles or continuously maintained in technical cycles, promoting a more sustainable and efficient production model.
