The size and shape of a problem drastically influences the solution.

Mapping textile resources shows us where waste and recyclable materials are generated and how they're distributed. It helps us better understand how to address the root causes of waste and identify opportunities for intervention.

For example: 

 

Textile to textile recycling facilities need an overview of potential input materials that are compatible with their processes. This same information helps brands and retailers understand how their every day choices impact waste generation and product recyclability.


What we do:

 

We start by defining the problem and key questions to answer. Then we review existing materials data, identify gaps, and get to work finding the missing information. From conducting surveys and interviews to leading hands-on data collection, we strive to shed light into the grey areas. The result is a set of insights and data that enable circular textiles flows.
