Government regulations and concerned consumers

While many of us are still basking in the holiday spirit, let’s continue to relax and savor the moments!

While the world may pause, one topic remains evergreen: the pursuit of sustainable clothing. But the real question – how do we make fashion truly circular? Let’s dive in!

How?

Well, with the help of government regulations and pressure from consumers who demand more transparency and sustainability.

Wear2^® Ecostitching Technology is ready to redefine the concept of circularity in textiles.

At the heart of this breakthrough is the Wear2^® Thread – a sewing thread designed with a unique attribute. It loses its strength after being exposed to just 60 seconds of electromagnetic energy. This feature allows for an effortless disassembly of stitches, separating textile streams for circular processing.

Even before EU, Netherlands is introducing the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) for clothing and textiles. What does this mean?

Producers are now in charge of efficient collection, recycling, and reusing clothing and household textiles.
This applies to all firms selling into the Netherlands, irrespective of their base location.

By 2024, retailers must disclose their yearly clothing sales in the country.

By 2025, the recycling and reusing game levels up:

50% of sold textiles should be prepped for reuse or recycling.
20% of them dedicated for direct reuse.
10% to be reused within the Netherlands.
25% of the recycled textiles will undergo “fibre-to-fibre” recycling.

Netherlands is weaving a green future in clothing, one thread at a time!

Wear2Go assists Brands and Retailers to comply with these new regulations. 

Discover the Wear2^® Thread and Tunnel Disassembly Technology! Using electromagnetic energy, this innovative approach allows for the effortless disassembly of clothing crafted from mixed materials and accessories once they’ve reached the end of their life cycle.

From zippers, buttons, and logos to tags, visibility tapes, and various design or safety-enhancing textile elements – everything can be smoothly separated.

The result?
Once disassembled, these monomaterials can be recycled at an unparalleled quality level, a feat previously unattainable with mixed material garments. Dive into the future with Wear2Go!

Making the step to circular textiles in your company doesn’t need to be complex or time-consuming – not with the right partner by your side.

Introducing a comprehensive digital platform that provides necessary transparency, traceability, and upcycling options. With a digital material passport connected to RFID and QR on each garment guarantees after the life cycle easy access to important upcycle information.

As the season unfolds, remember that Wear2^® Ecostitching Technology is primed and ready to guide your journey towards circular clothing.
