Building a Circular Economy, One Yarn at a Time At Maatri Shakti, we are fully committed to advancing circularity in the textile industry. By using 100% recycled raw materials—#preconsumer cotton and #postconsumer polyester—we are playing a critical role in reducing textile waste and conserving natural resources. Our closed-loop production process means we #recycle and #repurpose textile waste, turning it into high-quality yarn. This not only reduces the need for virgin resources but also significantly lowers the environmental impact of fashion production. Circular fashion isn’t just a trend; it’s the future, and we are proud to be part of it. Together, we can close the loop and create a more sustainable world. #CircularEconomy #SustainableTextiles #RecycledYarn #WasteReduction #EcoFashion

Today marks a significant milestone on a journey towards sustainable and circular fashion. The Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) has come into force, setting the stage for transformative changes in the textile industry over the coming years. This regulation ensures that products are designed to last longer, be easily repaired, and be recyclable, with a focus on incorporating recycled content. Such measures are crucial for maintaining material circulation and protecting biodiversity by reducing the need for new cultivated land. The forthcoming digital product passport will further enhance transparency, allowing consumers to make more informed and sustainable choices. By the time my son fits those jeans, he might be much more aware of where and how they were produced. He could be proud to make a sustainable choice and wear material that has been in circulation for a long time, just like in the first picture where he's wearing an INFINNA hoodie. We can be proud that our generation made it possible. I am privileged to have contributed to the preparation of this regulation, offering insights from a recycler's perspective. Infinited Fiber Company stands at the heart of this initiative, providing innovative solutions that will facilitate the regulation's implementation. I am eager to witness the unfolding impact of these changes. In the coming weeks, I will dive deeper into how this regulation supports the industry's shift from a linear to a circular model and what additional steps are needed to drive this transformation. #SustainableFashion #CircularEconomy #Ecodesign #Sustainability #GreenRegulation #Biodiversity #Recycling #EcoFriendly #InnovativeSolutions #FashionRevolution #ClimateAction #Infinna #ESPR #InfinitedFiber #CircularFashion #TextileRecycling #SustainableDevelopment

There is no planet B. Our environment is everything. Globally, organisations have a responsibility to create and manufacture uniforms in ethical, eco-friendly ways for their teams. Recycled fabrics are textiles produced from used materials that are transformed into new fibres to create new products. The uniqueness of recycled fabrics lies in reusing existing resources, helping to reduce waste and consume fewer natural resources compared to using new materials. With the exponential growth of the fashion industry and the threat of climate change, recycled fabrics have made a significant contribution to environmental protection. Recycling fabrics helps reduce plastic waste and other harmful materials consumed during traditional fabric production. Did you know that our Skechers by Barco range utilises seven recycled bottles in every garment? Interested to find out more? We would love to hear from you. . . . . . #uniformity #ethicalmanufacturing #wearyourbrandbetter #Healthcareprofessionals #uniformexperts #circulareconomy #sustainablefashion #consciousfashion #circularfashion #closedloop #fashionwaste #textilerecycling #whomademyclothes #fairpay #fairtrade #garmentworkers #fastfashion #organicfabric #ethicalfabric #ethicalfashion #organicclothing #madefromwaste #circularbydesign #regenerativedesign #closetheloop #circularity #ecodesigner #ecoliving #sustainablematerials #recycledplastic
