This collaboration marks a significant milestone in the commercialisation and scaling of Circulose, while also propelling Tangshan Sanyou’s brand toward greater international recognition. The two companies will work together to ensure that ReVisco fibers, produced using Circulose pulp, meet market demands in terms of quality, supply capacity, and pricing, thereby advancing both brands in the high-quality and innovative development of circular and renewable materials.

Crucial step forward in global expansion strategy

“We are thrilled to establish a strong strategic partnership with Tangshan Sanyou,” said Jonatan Janmark, CEO of Circulose. “This represents a crucial step forward in our global expansion strategy, fostering closer, more in-depth collaborations with innovative fibre producers and like-minded brands. As the first major strategic partnership since the restructuring of Circulose, this collaboration will serve as a cornerstone of our success. Together with Tangshan Sanyou and our brand partners, we will ensure the scalable development of ReVisco fibers by using Circulose pulp in a predictable and controlled manner. We highly value our long-term partnership with Tangshan Sanyou and look forward to achieving mutual success as we shape the future of the industry.”

Recognised as a top-tier company in Canopy’s authoritative Hot Button Report, Tangshan Sanyou has gained international acclaim for its achievements in sustainability and circular development. Since the founding of Re:newcell, Sanyou has been a key strategic partner of Circulose and remains the world’s largest user of Circulose pulp for fiber production. Now, with a renewed commitment to sustainability, Tangshan Sanyou is taking a leadership role in advancing large-scale textile circularity, setting a benchmark for both China and the global textile industry. This strategic partnership further strengthens both companies’ shared commitment to scaling up the application of ReVisco innovative and circular materials, accelerating the transition of China’s textile industry toward a more circular and renewable future.
