Your recycling solutions start here

The mission – to keep apparel and other textiles out of landfill,
whilst investing in circular solutions for the textile industry.

Our Method

We can’t stop people from outgrowing their clothes, wearing through them or deciding that it’s time for something new. The Global “Fast Fashion” trend has ensured that all end of life apparels , accessories etc. are finding its way into our Landfills and Oceans.

E4F Resurrect collects ,segregates, upcycles, repurposes and recycles all such End of Life Fashion Apparels and Accessories.

Assessing the different kinds of waste that comes out of the fashion industry ,not restricted to, pre manufacturing waste, post consumer waste, torn and tattered fabrics, shoes, belts, hand bags, surplus inventory etc., we determine how best to segregate them and bring it back into Circularity, thus creating Sustainability for all stake holders including Manufacturers and Brands.

Collection & Sorting

In partnership with Municipal Corporations, Corporate houses and Recycling Facilities pan India , we have created an AI based tech platform, to have all Textile waste, Fashion Accessories waste, preloved clothing etc., to get collected at source.

Once collected we have them sorted at our various decentralized units.

Sorting is done for 5 different streams:

Upcycling

Repurposing

Donating

Recycling

Fuel

Giving back

As per reports in a fashion magazine, 73% of discarded clothes end up in landfills, that are brimming with so much urban waste that by 2050, India will require one the size of New Delhi to fit all of the waste it produces. That means in another 30 years, Indian will be brimming with APPAREL, ACCESSORIES AND FASHION waste.

In the age of social media , fashion gurus and influencers it’s easy to get caught up in the rat race of the hunt for the latest rags. The latest trends outfits soon becomes outdated and lingers on in the dark side of the closet piling up you wardrobe and eating up all your free space.
Well, modern fashion is a fickle mistress, and her moods keep changing all the time, with new trends replacing old ones within a few months. So, what do you do with all the awesome clothes you just wore once and twice that tragically is outdated or no longer fitting clothes?

The answer lies in recycle, reuse and upcycle. Believe it or not, donating clothes not only helps bring a smile to someone needy but it’s actually great for the environment.

Reuse (Upcycle)

Upcycle” clearly means creating something new out of old.

The processes we follow will re-create old apparels and accessories into :
1. Insulation or Carpet padding
2. Quilts
3. Table mats
4. Door mats
5. Cloth bags
6. Packaging material
7. Cleaning rags
8. Show pieces
9. Coasters

The entire idea of upcycling is to create employment for the lower strata of society at the same time creating Circularity within the Fashion space.

Recycling

Recycling of textiles using plastic bottles has become increasingly popular PLASTIC BOTTLES (PET) IS NOW BEING RECYCLED TO MAKE NEW SYNTHETIC FABRIC in recent years because it helps reduce greenhouse gasses produced by landfills and preserves natural resources for future generations. Recycling reduces energy use and water usage since fewer raw materials have to be extracted from the earth before being CONVERTED into new products, which may prevent pollution.

But it can’t be recycled again, as plastic is mixed with the source . When textile fibers are made from synthetic materials, they cannot be broken down by microorganisms in the air and end up staying there for a long time. And will create a bigger problem in future. So, to solve this we are segregating the waste, pulped and re-spun into high-quality yarn through a process that eliminates the use of excess water or chemicals and recreates pure processed organic recyclable fabric.

Fuel

Post Upcycling , Post Repurposing, Post Recycling, whatever fashion waste ……if left over, can be shredded , compacted with resins and used as fuel in Pollution Control Board approved Kilns and Furnaces.

This process of E4F resurrect , thus ensures that we are a “Zero Waste Organization“.
