Canam Group British Columbia

Recognized in over 40 countries for their transparent and sustainable business practices, Canam Group has been a partial link in the global textile supply chain since the early 90’s.

With over 2 billion pounds of textile waste redirected and thousands of lives changed, Canam promotes a sustainable and safe environment by providing people in underprivileged demographics with employment opportunities and mentorship, while being treated as part of a community and the Canam family.

Canam advocates for a closed loop, circular textile economy by re-using, downcycling, and mechanically recycling textiles, which entails processing nearly half a million pounds of textiles per day! In the future, they look forward to investing in new, chemical recycling technologies, once they reach economies of scale. This would allow for more upcycling and high quality textile to textile recycling. This is ultimately the end goal of textile recycling as it would essentially create a closed loop system and achieve the holy grail of textile circularity and sustainability.
