Why recycle my old socks?
800,000,000 kilograms are thrown away every year
Australians discard over 23kg of textiles annually, equalling 6,000kg of textile waste being disposed every 10 minutes. Globally, 87% of disposed textiles are sent to landfill or incinerated; 12% is mechanically recycled into fibre, insulation material or rags; and LESS than 1% is chemically recycled back to reusable raw materials.
You’ll have a positive impact
For every 1kg of textiles you divert from landfill, you’ll be preventing 3-4kg of greenhouse gases from polluting the atmosphere. UPPAREL makes it easy and take the hassle out of determining whether to reuse, upcycle or recycle your textiles.
Nothing will end up in landfill
By implementing their philosophy of reuse first where possible, then upcycle when necessary, UPPAREL will ensure that nothing is ever sent off-shore or dumped in landfill.
We’ll reward you for doing good
You’ll score a 10% discount code just for participating in the program (10% off your next order, T&C’s apply). Spend it knowing that you’ve positively contributed to the fight against textile landfill.
