I am so excited to find that H&M will take your old fabrics (worn clothes, drapes, curtains, cloths, towels, bedsheets, etc) and receive a coupon for 15%-20% off your entire purchase.!! This is so awesome because I have always struggled with where to take my old dingy white tee and busted clothing. Alas! H&M is the garment savior. I am TOO excited about this.Check out there mission statement below;
We were the first fashion company to launch a global garment collection initiative. Today, you can hand in any clothes you no longer want. That way, we can reduce waste and give old products a new life. Eventually, we’ll close the loop on textiles so nothing ever goes to waste.
Of the thousands of tonnes of textiles that people throw away every year, as much as 95% could be re-worn or recycled.
- Rewear – clothing that can be worn again will be sold as second hand clothes
- Reuse – old clothes and textiles will be turned into other products, such as cleaning cloths
- Recycle – everything else is turned into textile fibres, or other use such as insulation.
Free two birds with one key
Kudos to you H&M!
