A lot of people do not take sufficient care of their garments which results in them damaging easily and therefore, needing to be replaced more often.

The issues with disposing of garments actually begins when you first own them. We have broken down some of the many options available that can help reduce the impact of clothing waste on the planet. You may make a point of using the correct coloured bins and disposing of cardboard and compost effectively, but many people neglect to consider other forms of waste.Ī third of clothing in the UK is disposed of via refuse (that's £140m worth of clothing going to landfill each year!) This is a concerning amount that suggests that the need to recycle clothing and the means of doing so may be shrouded in mystery to the British public. The environment is a very important matter that all should concern themselves with, including businesses and their consumers. From an individual perspective, your carbon footprint has a direct impact on the health of the planet and while this responsibility falls to all, there is an extra concern for businesses - failing to care for the environment could leave a negative impression on your customers.
