This website will act as a resource to educate and create awareness of the opportunities which exist to reuse and recycle corporatewear and therefore reduce the amount sent to landfill each year.

Tackling clothing and textile waste is a major challenge, particularly significant in the corporate clothing sector in which only 5% of garments is recovered. Developed by the CRR and partners across the corporatewear industry, this site provides reports and tools to enable some of the barriers to recovery to be better understood and, potentially, overcome.

Just some of the features incorporated in the website are: an interactive map, showing where to find sustainable corporatewear manufacturers and reprocessors; a fabrics database with information on the characteristics and end-of-life options for current and emerging fibres; and a series of case studies featuring companies across the supply chain who have overcome barriers to operate sustainable systems and manage a recovery system for clothing generated.
