Diversion
Clear excess and unsellable stock responsibly by integrating Upparel into your waste management process. We handle everything from clothing and accessories to returns and damaged goods, ensuring materials are reused or recycled with transparency.
Destruction
Sensitive branded items and uniforms are securely destroyed within Upparel’s Australian facility, providing end-to-end traceability, brand protection, and a certificate of destruction.
Powered by our bespoke ERP system, Upparel delivers full visibility across every stage of your textile’s journey – tracking materials from intake through to output; re-use, recycled or re-purposed.
Why do brands need stock recycling?
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 2,500,000 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.
Some of the common textiles we collect from brands include unwanted stock which is excess inventory or items that aren’t likely to sell and exceed the trajectory or projected demand. We also collect any faulty or dormant textiles, as well as customer returns.
Nothing should end up in landfill
We’re providing a solution that allows you to do good by the planet, and dispose of your old stock thoughtfully. We are working with hundreds of brands to facilitate the in-store collection or delivery of your old, unwanted stock and well ensure that none of it ends up in landfil. By Partnering with these brands we can up-cycle re-use or recycle any unwanted stock straight from the source
