Every second of every day, we collect more than a kilogram of unwanted clothing from around Australia via our many collection channels. Through our world class processing facilities, clothing is sorted to its highest and best use, and re-homed to communities that need them most. Over the past 25 years, our work has prevented billions of items of clothing from ending up in landfill. We pride ourselves on our ethical and responsible approach to reuse, repurpose and recycling, using our business to help protect our planet. We do this by investing heavily in best-in-class services, programs and technology solutions, collaborating with governments, corporates, fashion brands and charities to create an impactful circular economy in Australia and beyond.
