96 million tonnes of clothing goes to landfill every year
60% of this clothing is currently unrecyclable and will not biodegrade.
This global problem is increasing every year. Today, we buy 60% more clothing than before, only to discard each item after wearing it 50% as often.
Many of these clothes rot forever in landfill and have far-reaching implications on environmental and human health.
