Our Philosophy

Have you ever thought about the number of clothing items you have owned in your lifetime?

It’s not a question that crosses our minds often but maybe it should. Textile material deemed unusable for its original purpose is called textile waste. This includes but is not limited to – fashion and textile industry waste created during fiber, textile and clothing production, and consumer waste created during consumer use and disposal.

Globally 100 million tons of textile waste is generated yearly, of which only 13% is recycled. Clearly, Textile waste generation is an issue that urgently calls for stronger actions and rethinking manufacturing and disposal guidelines in the fashion industry.

So the next time you give up on your clothes, think twice- are you sure you can’t use them anywhere else? Take it from us, scraps have more to them than what meets the eye.
