Description

The clothing industry has massive opportunities to become both resource-efficient and good for the environment.

Although fast-fashion results in tons of out-of-season clothes to be thrown away and producing clothing sustainably is currently costly, consumer demand and behavior is evolving.

Today’s guest says that change is coming to the industry as big industry players begin making the shift to eco-friendly products and practices. Innovations in recycling and circular production are the necessary catalysts to spur and create an environmentally-friendly fashion industry.

In this Episode of Sustainability Champions, I speak with Isaac Nicholson, Co-Founder and CEO of Circular Systems and Champion of Recycled Textiles. Circular Systems turns a variety of waste into high-quality fibers and yarns, which textile producers and apparel manufacturers then use to make clothes. These circular technologies include their Agraloop fiber, which uses food-crop waste to make BioFibre and their Texloop Recycling, which recycles consumer and industrial textile waste into yarn.

Apart from their own breakthroughs in technology, Isaac Nicholson believes the industry is responding to the ever-growing consumer demand for more sustainable production. We can’t wait to see fashion made with Circular Systems Technology hitting retail-shelves soon!
