Providing the missing piece of the recycling puzzle to become circular

HOW DOES IT WORK?

AT A GLANCE.

• We collect OR you deliver a minimum of 120kg
• the clothing and textile waste is transported to our local disability enterprise partners to sort, weigh, collect data, dismantle, rebale and redistribute to a growing number of circular streams throughout Australia
• OR we send direct to the waste stream that suits your material type.

NEXT STEP.

• depending on your material type, the product is sent to reuse, upcycle or repurpose.  
• we collect, measure and audit the disposal, resource recovery and repurposing data and offer a Life Cycle Assessment
• You will receive a Zero Textile Waste Certification and data on the carbon emissions you have mitigated. 

WHAT WE DON'T DO.

• we don't send to landfill, incinerate or ship overseas as this will create more carbon emissions and pollution plus just end up in another countries landfill creating more carbon emissions. The Circular Centre is the only service in Australia that doesn't do this.     

Contact us to request an Assessment Form to determine which of our resource recovery services and streams you require and provide a quote.                                                              

WHAT WE DO DO.

• we address the United Nations 17 Sustainable Development Goals especially #13 Climate Action and request that our clients sign a commitment to with the United Nations Charter for Climate Action.
• we divert and harness the textile waste instead of causing more harm or a little bit less harm
• we promote circular economy innovation, industries and manufacturing to stay in Australia
• we both mitigate carbon emissions by diverting textiles from landfill plus sequester carbon through our #iamcarbonpositive direct action initiative
• we encourage education, awareness and community empowerment and highlight problems with over consumption plus promote reuse, recycle and redesign streams
• we support disability enterprise's working with Australia's peak body BuyAbility
• we support charities and re-sharing communities.

and through the Circular Market we

• create safe repurposed products and will not allow our synthetic fibres to be put back into the fashion supply chain to continue to cause harm
• we develop financially sustainable circular systems
