Priortize recycled fibers from textile sources to grow demand. Support raw material suppliers with offtake agreements

Explore dye and print innovations that are more compatible with recycling

Utlize all types of recycling. Challenge your clients to design for circularity - longevity, repairability, recyclability. Pool together with other suppliers to nurture and build supply/demand loops. Monitor materials and chemicals - track, reduce and simplify

Signal demand for recycled materials, make offtake agreements with recyclers. Financially invest in textile-to-textile recyclers

Circulate textile waste from all tiers of the supply chain. invest in circular design training for your teams and suppliers, to facilitate recycling downstream

Challenge your favourite brands, what are they doing to support textile recycling? To increase the chances of recycling, when shopping; select pure, unblended materials; if blended, try limit to poly-cotton; avoid elastane / spandex / LYCRA if not functional

Buy less, buy better - quality products last longer, and are worth the effort to eventually recycle

Stipulate recycled content targets, eg. 50% recycled content with 25% from recycled textiles.

Subsidize recycling production sites and support with permits. Ban the destruction of clothing and textiles and increase taxation for landfill. Encourage recycling - it can generate 3 times more jobs than landfill

Invest in awareness campaigns - informed citizens make better choices when it comes to purchasing and disposal behavior

Invest in emerging recycling technologies to build diverse options globally to handle textile waste. Invest in established textile waste management and mechanical recycling infrastructure to handle the volume of waste

Early stage investments to move technologies from lab / pilot to demo / full-scale plans. Consider supportive technologies targeting dyeing and printing to further reduce the impact of fashion production
