Gebetex Tri: your specialist wholesaler for second-hand clothes
Gebetex is a major player in textile sorting and recycling. As a wholesaler of second-hand clothing, we carefully select pre-owned clothing to offer quality second-hand items to our customers in France and abroad.
Our expertise is based on rigorous classification of TLC (clothing, household linen, and footwear) within our own facilities, minimizing waste and maximizing the value of collected clothing. Our teams, trained in manual sorting, quickly assess the quality of textiles to integrate them into the appropriate recycling chain.
Thanks to this efficient process, 95% of sorted textiles are reused or recycled, while the remaining 5% are recovered for energy.
An approved sorting center for quality textiles
Located in Vernon (Eure), our sorting center is certified by the ECO TLC eco-organization, guaranteeing responsible and sustainable textile management. Our strategic location, just outside Paris, allows us to efficiently sort and distribute TLC arrivals from our parent company, Gebetex Collecte.
Every day, our center processes 20 tons of textiles for second-hand dealers, recycling professionals, and specialized wholesalers.
Our categories of second-hand clothes
We offer a varied selection of second-hand clothes, adapted to the needs of our professional customers:
- “Extra” Thrift Store : high-end selection for the French and European market ;
- “Retro” or “vintage” thrift store : high-end selection of vintage pieces ;
- “Export” or “Tropical Mix” second-hand clothing : clothing intended for the African market ;

We are able to adapt to specific situations and projects. Do not hesitate to contact us.
A two-step manual sorting
Our sorting is carried out manually to ensure optimal quality. It takes place in two phases. The first step consists of separating the TLCs into the following categories :
The second step examines these categories in more detail to ensure quality standards and directs the TLCs to the appropriate channels (reuse or recycling).
Throughout our sorting chain, we apply essential values: respect for the environment and working conditions, industrial and financial solvency, traceability, etc.
