Recycling Fiber For A Better Tomorrow

H. Brickle Fiber Trading & Recycling specializes in combining virgin and recycled fibers to deliver tailored solutions for your manufacturing needs.
With over 80 years of expertise, H. Brickle provides unparalleled value beyond price per pound. Our deep industry knowledge allows us to produce wool, polyester, nylon, and custom fiber blends designed to meet diverse manufacturing requirements.

Operating out of a 175,000 sq. ft. shredding, recycling, and blending facility, we process up to 20 million pounds annually, supported by an inventory of over 5 million pounds of raw material ready for immediate shipment.

At H. Brickle, we take corporate responsibility to the next level by transforming returned garment waste—primarily knitted goods—into high-quality finished fibers. By giving these materials a second life, we help manufacturers reduce waste, lower their environmental impact, and contribute to a more sustainable supply chain. This innovative approach not only minimizes landfill contributions but also demonstrates how recycling can drive positive change in the textile industry.
