Kettering Textiles Limited is widely recognised as one of the UK’s leading collectors of used clothing and recylable textiles. The directors of the company have over thirty five years of experience in this constantly changing market and the company has an enviable reputation for supplying quality clothing and other textiles to both established and developing markets around the world.
In 1991 Kettering Textiles Limited and The Salvation Army, through the medium of its trading subsidiary Salvation Army Trading Company Limited (SATCoL), began an ongoing relationship which today, by sheer excellence of service, has become the country's largest collector of used clothing.
The Salvation Army, one of the most respected charities in the world, uses textile recycling to raise funds for those in need in very many ways. The esteem in which The Salvation Army is held by the general public has undoubtedly contributed to the success of the enterprise which now collects from more than 3500 clothing banks across the United Kingdom. In addition a
door-to-door collection service visits millions of homes each year.
