REFIT™ is the latest textile sustainable circulation program from SINGTEX where 100% polyester single-material clothes are decomposed, reassembled, and reproduced into brand-new clothes.
Persisting on the concept that recycling is not accepting “garbage,” but rather receiving “resources,” REFIT™ hopes to implement the “Textile to Textile Sustainable Circulation Program,” to incorporate the eco-friendly principle into the source of product design, to wear the determination of protecting the Earth on the body!
REFIT™ Smart Clothes Recycling Box was jointly developed by SINGTEX, TDRI and Miniwiz. Through smart technologies, this recycling box is capable of identifying the materials of the textiles, solving the issue where mixed materials are difficult to recycle for reproduction, thereby enhancing the efficiency and feasibility of old clothes recycling.
Moreover, the materials used to produce the recycling box were further recycled from old clothes and discarded materials from the clothes manufacturing process.
2022, 2023 Taiwan TianZhong Marathon

SINGTEX further initiated the "REFIT Textile Sustainable Circulation Program" at the Tianzhong Marathon vendor, encouraging runners to bring obsolete 100% polyester running tops at home to the event site.

2023 New Taipei City WJS Marathon
The running tops for the 2023 New Taipei City WJS Marathon have adopted the S.Café® technology based on the collaboration between Mizuno Taiwan and SINGTEX, where the 11,000 running tops are derived from 33,000 cups of coffee and 55,000 plastic bottles together with the low-carbon footprint manufacturing process, so that a total of 2,090 kg of carbon emission and 88,000 kg of water were reduced.
WJS Marathon held the “Green and Fashion Expo” at the New Taipei City Government, where the SINGTEX REFIT™ recycling box made of old clothes and discarded materials jointly developed by SINGTEX and Miniwiz, is also displayed on site, allowing the public to recycle their old clothes while attending the expo.
REFIT Second-hand Clothes Exchange Markets
Before Recycling, find new opportunities
Rather than having your clothes recycled, it would be better if someone were willing to take them over. In order to establish a corporate culture of "Reuse before recycling", SINGTEX has held three "REFIT Second-hand Clothes Exchange Markets" on Earth Day and Christmas, inviting colleagues to sort out second-hand clothes at home and bring them to exchange with colleagues to help clothes find new owners!
