Why Velener cotton yarns make your textiles even better.

Textile quality depends on the thread: A fabric is only as good as the yarn it is made from. With OE cotton yarns from the Velener spinning mill, you can process first-class material on your weaving and knitting machines.

Excellent machine run and uniformity from the first to the last centimeter.
With us, you benefit from the latest spinning technology, specialist knowledge and a century of cotton experience. We test and optimize every yarn you order from us for your specific application.

Long-fiber qualities with high tensile strength and particularly pure white.
In our spinning mill, we only process carefully selected raw cotton from responsible sourcing. Their long fibers combine to form particularly tear-resistant yarn. And the clean white proves its worth, for example, in table and bed linen as well as terry towelling products from many well-known manufacturers.

Certified quality and maximum textile responsibility.

We see it as our social and ecological duty to improve the textile world for all stakeholders. We produce in an environmentally conscious manner and undergo regular audits and testing. Velener yarns made from certified organic cotton, sustainably grown cotton and WECYCLED^®, our zero-waste recycled cotton, guarantee the highest ecological standards. 

As a textile professional, you probably know which yarn you need. Nevertheless, please tell us what you have in mind. The more we know about how you want to process our yarn, the better we can tailor it to your needs in the spinning mill. We have a lot of experience and excellent references, particularly with bed linen, terry towelling, home textiles, clothing and tent fabrics. Benefit from the know-how of our textile engineers and many decades of spinning experience.

More and more consumers are attaching importance to certified textile quality, organic cotton cultivation or verifiably sustainable production. Make something of it! We Velener are your partner for this growing market. We also score points with regional production and short delivery routes.

What's more: with our WECYCLED^® yarns, we offer you a real innovation. These yarns are produced using zero-waste recycling and create inclusive jobs. Ecological and ethical added value that is used, for example, by the largest German discounter.  

WECYCLED^®. Our yarn made from zero-waste recycling.

Do you know how much cotton literally falls by the wayside in the production process? In weaving mills, many meters of yarn remain on the spools, in sewing mills, heaps of fabric remnants from cutting. Impeccable material – but it is usually disposed of unused, and that also costs money.
 

The yarn with a real USP.  

This is exactly where we started to develop a more sustainable alternative. We turn yarn and fabric remnants from our production into individual fibers. We spin these with long-fiber virgin cotton to create WECYCLED^® yarns. In the same high quality that characterizes all Velener yarns: top machine running, uniformity and high tensile strength.
 

Textile recycling management with a system.  

There is a reason for this consistently high quality: we only recycle yarn and fabric remnants from yarns that were produced in our own spinning mill. We collect these from our customers on a regular basis. This creates a closed cycle according to the cradle-to-cradle principle, from which everyone benefits.
 

Wecycle with us.

for organic fibers. With the traceable GOTS seal, you signal to your customers that you comply with strict standards, textile transparency and quality. We Velener stand behind these values, and I'm sure you do too. Use the GOTS-certified cotton yarns from our spinning mill to make your products even better.
 

Good for the environment.

The international GOTS certificate seals cotton cultivation according to the criteria of organic farming: no synthetic pesticides, no insecticides, no herbicides and no genetic engineering are used. In this way, GOTS yarns protect ecosystems and soils.
 

Good for people.

The GOTS seal also guarantees compliance with strict social and ethical standards. Child labor and discrimination are prohibited. All workers along the entire supply chain receive at least the respective statutory minimum wage. And health and safety protection applies in the workplace.
 

Good for your products.

There is a lot wrong with the textile production chain. It is very important to us to contribute to a change in systems and values. This is why we are involved in “Cotton made in Africa” (CMiA) and the “Better Cotton Initiative” (BCI), among others. Both organizations are committed to more sustainable cotton production through various social and economic development projects. .
 

Voluntary sustainability standards. 

Cotton made in Africa is a voluntary sustainability standard for African cotton. The textile label promotes sustainable, smallholder cotton cultivation, particularly in the sub-Saharan region. To this end, the initiative finances projects based on the principle of help for self-help. The Better Cotton Initiative operates in a similar way: it supports local communities in the world's cotton-growing countries through education and health programs.
 

Better working conditions, less environmental impact.

You can support these measures with appropriately certified yarns. However, BCI- and CMiA-certified cotton is predominantly grown conventionally. Only qualities certified with the green CmiA seal are organic cotton.
 

Yarn for a better future. 

The Oeko-tex 100 seal of approval sets the global standard for tested textiles free of harmful substances. We at Velener are regularly tested by the Hohenstein Institute. With our certified yarns, we guarantee you textile quality that is 100 % free from chemical residues and other potentially harmful substances.
 

For textiles that are close to the skin.

The Oeko-tex 100 seal is certainly one of the best-known textile certifications. Consumers value this tested human-ecological product safety. Especially for products that come close to our skin – whether towels, bathrobes, bed linen or baby clothes.
 

Trust, made in Velen.
