In the transition to more sustainable production methods, clothing producers and suppliers in the chain are increasingly being held responsible for responsible disposal of end-of-life products.Legislation and regulations are being tightened to guarantee this. We also see that more and more producers are opting for socially responsible, sustainable alternatives. WEAR2™ RETURN SYSTEM is the link that was missing to enable circularity in the textile industry.
With the Wear2® RETURN SYSTEM, we offer clothing and textile producers, governments, and end-users the opportunity to dispose end-of-life textiles in a sustainable way. By offering you complete, optimised, and cost-friendly return logistics, the transition to circularity costs you little effort and few adjustments. Textiles are processed in an environmentally friendly way in our separation hub.
In this way, textile waste gains value again, so that end-of-life textiles will eventually generate money.
100 million tonnes of newly produced (virgin) fibres are used annually worldwide by the textile and clothing industry for the production of fabrics such as wool, cotton, polyester, acrylic and nylon. This is enormously environmentally harmful and also unnecessary. Upcycling offers a solution, because of all waste streams this will result in the largest CO2reduction in the textile industry, while the quality of textile fibres could be largely maintained. 100 million tonnes of virgin material, new fibres, are used annually for the production of textile fabrics. Time for change.
Of course, we are always at your service for further explanation, additional questions or more specified information.
