The
Problem
Problem
Australians got rid of a staggering 800,000,000 kg of threads in 2018-2019 and the truth is that 95% of this could have been recycled.
Over 25% of the textiles that we’ve received to date have come directly from brands. This means that we’ve been able to recycle approximately 450,000 dormant or old textiles that otherwise would’ve been sent to landfill or incinerated. Globally, 87% of discarded textiles are sent to landfill or incinerated, so for the sake of the next generation, we need to change. Through our recycling initiatives and with the help of our visionary partners, we’re confident that we can make a difference.
What is Stock
Recycling?
Recycling?
A solution for old uniforms, dormant stock or samples and returns through bulk collections or in-store drop off points.
We’re providing a solution that allows you to do good by the planet, and dispose of your old stock thoughtfully. Work with us to facilitate the in-store collection or delivery of your old, unwanted stock and we’ll ensure that none of it ends up in landfill. Plus! Once you become a Stock Recycling partner, we’ll provide you with a certification sticker and impact statement. Use the sticker as a badge on your website or collateral to promote what you’ve kept out of landfill.

Who’s already involved?
Lowes have worked with us to divert over 6000kg of faulty textiles that would otherwise be incinerated or thrown straight into landfill. We'll try to reuse every single item and keep it in circulation. Any textiles that we're unable to reuse will be shredded and recycled into brand new products, ensuring absolutely nothing goes to waste!
With our partnership, we’ve been able to work with Teachers Mutual Bank and divert around 1500kg of old uniforms from reaching landfill. These products will be shredded and broken down to be turned into insulation, building materials, stuffing for pet beds, and more!⠀
Through our stock recycling initiative, we’ve been able to help JAGGAD find a new home for over 5000kg of faulty stock. For anything that we can’t reuse, we’ll ensure that it's recycled into something new and given a second life.
