EP12 | Upcycling garment finishing factory waste for high street Talk Sustainability with Sandeep
-
- Economía y empresa
A significant amount of textile is wasted in the garment finishing factories. Traditionally, this has been sold as mixed scrap to the unorganised sector that then downcycles it for lower end or finds alternative uses. While this keeps material in use longer, it continues or even worsens the social and environmental challenges of the industry. But it doesn’t have to be this way only. We spoke with Kriti Tula, a fashion designer and co-owner of DOODLAGE - a label that upcycles this waste into high street designs and products.
