History

In 1981 the owner Klaus Mischon started his business by collecting used textiles with simple street collections.

Around 1990 the first company owned textile banks were installed and by that a new basis for further growth was founded.

Right before the new millenium the first sorting facility was built in Germersheim, Rhineland-Palatinate. At first it comprised approx. 3.000m² and in the following years it was expanded to approx. 10.000m² in total.

Due to further growth, the company had to be restructured and was therefore transformed into the now existing Remitex GmbH. Remitex stands for Recycling Mischon Textilies.

After completion of the second sorting facility in Philippsburg-Huttenheim in 2013 - which comprised approx. 5.000m² - and expansion to approx. 10.000m² in 2017, all sorting and nearly all stock activities were relocated to Huttenheim.
