Sustainability
Sustainability, woven into every yard.




Initiatives
What sustainability looks like, mill by mill.
Textile dyeing is one of the industry's thirstiest, most polluting steps. Our onsite reclamation system catches, cleans, and reuses dye water in a closed loop — so it never reaches the waterways.
More than 80% of the electricity running our mills comes from solar and wind. Less combustion, a smaller footprint, generation after generation.
We support Housing Works and the Mujer Virtuosa Foundation, and plant a tree for every yard of Otratex sold, through One Tree Planted.
Our upholstery leather carries a Gold Rating from the Leather Working Group, tanned with 40% less water and harmful chemicals than conventional processes.

The concious choice

Otratex: The first-ever MindClick Innovator
MindClick independently rates the environmental health of manufacturers and their products. In 2024, Otratex — our 100% biodegradable vinyl — earned Fil Doux Innovator status: one of just 300 manufacturers to reach Leader level, and the only one to go further.
