From Material Union's website:
Material Union is building a textile recycling facility and hub for transformation.
We’re here to redefine the word “waste.”
What others discard, we transform. Your unusable clothes become valuable materials with endless potential—remade jackets, stuffed animals, home insulation, couch stuffing, and whatever else we can dream up.
The narrative of doom feels overwhelming these days, but we’re here to flip the script. Material Union exists to inspire action and spark hope by showing that creative ingenuity and community can lead to real, sustainable solutions.
