Today’s Lack Of Sustainability
Today’s linear system of «take – make – waste» needs to change. New textiles are produced, used and discarded instead of putting them to a second use. The production of new textiles requires limited natural resources and the current system has a significant negative impact on our planet.
The transition to a circular system, where garments are kept in use for longer, is an opportunity to harness untapped potential around customer loyalty, economic growth, and ecological sustainability.
TEXAID offers professional and confidential management of pre-consumer goods. This includes overstock, off-season and excess inventory, as well as returns. Curated service options based on brand specific requirements are available for pre-consumer goods, including: Reuse provides the greatest ecological and economical value for used post-consumer textiles. At TEXAID, approximately 60% of sorted garments are resold as second-hand items. TEXAID has its own well developed resale channels, including multiple online platforms as well as over 50 physical locations throughout Germany.
