Old Garment Review

Please ensure the used garment is cleaned and valuable items are removed. Our researcher will evaluate the condition and recyclability of the used garment. If it is recyclable, you may get a brand-new recycled knitwear with a fee; or donate the used garment for our research study. It usually takes 21 working days for the production of recycled garment.

Fibre Blending and Color

To enhance the yarn spinning strength, virgin fibre, e.g. cotton and lyocell, will be blended with recycled material. The virgin fibre blending percentage varies depending on the quality of the used garment.

The virgin fibre is naturally white, making the upcycled garment appear lighter than the original. Recycled garment may contain some foreign fibres.
