Recycle
We collect used uniforms and recycle them into new resources such as automotive interior materials.
In this way, environmental load is much less than thermal recycling ( Energy recovery ).
Until now, recycling rate in the textile industry has only been a few %.
There wasn't much consideration about the disposal method after usage of the products.
That's why we wanted to make our own action. We built all-in-one-cycle system - from product planning, manufacturing, distribution to the collection of used items and recycling. We make a real change.
- There are 2 recovery routes : Clients → Us or Clients → Recycle counter → Us.
- If you want us to issue the certificate, of course we can. Just let us know.
