About us
Together we can close the loop
Amolia is a Danish company founded to help close the loop on the textile industry and contribute to a more sustainable future. We create home textile products made of upcycled textiles and furniture pieces made from recycled textiles.
We collect, manually sort through and cut out all reusable fabric in our warehouse in Holbæk, Denmark, then organize by type and size ready to be sent to our factory in the EU. White fabric is first organically dyed with GOTs certified dyes, whereas coloured fabrics are sewn directly into timeless home textile products.
A collaboration focused on circularity
Our cooperation is based on the collecting and recycling of washed, discarded textiles from Copenhagen’s regional laundry house in Denmark. The collected textiles consist of a variety of garments and items; from towels and t-shirts to blankets and bedsheets.
It’s thanks to this collaboration with the Region that we are able to produce more sustainable home textiles for the Scandinavian market and are able to contribute to the transition to a more circular textiles industry.environmental impact has also improved from 5,59 m3 to 0,135 m3, when reusing textile waste.

All cut white textiles are sent to be dyed organically in the EU.
