Around 95% of the collected clothes are reused, upcycled, or recycled. Half is reusable, half is recyclable. Firstly, it is sorted and graded by the garment composition, condition, quality, and other parameters. Reusable clothes are resold to second-hand shops & boutiques. The lower grades are turned into rags and then used for industrial purposes like stuffing, insulation, etc. Because of the complex mix of materials found in garments, textile waste is one of the most challenging wastes to recycle!
