After the collection of clothing, a process of sorting follows, and the organization to find a sustainable reuse of the textile. We take care of it according to the R-ladder for maximum circularity of the collected clothing. Ultimately, we also try to minimize the negative impact on the environment.
REUSE
We want good quality clothing to be worn again. It most sustainable is to extend the life cycle bysell in second-hand shops at home and abroad.
REMAKE
Have clothing pimped up or make interior products for shops from collected clothing. It is all possible. We work with partners in mainly Netherlands to create exclusive designs.
RECYCLE
Is a piece of clothing no longer good enough to wear again, then we look at recycling options. It preferably as high-quality as possible (closed loop). That's how collected clothing is reused for new yarns and fabrics. We invest in new innovations to work towards a circular clothing industry.
