The problem:
The world is facing challenges involving waste, climate change, resource scarcity, loss of biodiversity- and simultaneously, we want to sustain our economies and offer opportunities to our growing world population.
While 100% of all waste fabric can be reutilized via recycling or upcycling, the reality of what occurs is different due to the difficulties faced in waste management. Pre-consumer textile waste is an issue that impacts us as a whole; up to 25% of fabric is lost in the cutting & manufacturing process of textile & related products.
India is the world’s 2nd largest exporter of textile and apparel products, and has a massive raw material and manufacturing base. India’s textiles and apparel industry has had a significant impact on employment and our economy. Any industry this vast is bound to have other corresponding impacts to the world around it.
Our approach:
We are revolutionizing the sector by mending the supply chain gaps, which eventually contribute towards the following points:
• Facilitate the development of a circular economy surrounding pre-consumer textile waste
• Accountable, Transparent & Traceable disposal solutions to upstream partners
• Make sorted waste readily available to the dependent industries like recyclers & upcyclers
• Saving our consumers time and cost through inventory information, accessibility & a steady supply of raw material
• Introducing Technology for Managing high volumes & Making it accessible (inventory dashboard)
• Positive environmental and societal impacts
• No Landfills, No Incineration! 100% re-utilization of procured waste
The Solution:
We offer customized solutions to brands & organizations for responsible disposal & management of their pre-consumer textile waste.
