The Fabric Movement: Why Dump When You Can Recycle, and Make Money?

Feb 05, 2020, 03:58 AM

Think of the last time when you discarded that pile of shirts and dresses you have outgrown. Where did you dispose of them?

Did you shove the clothes out with the rest of your garbage? Or were they nicely folded and boxed in the attic, in hopes that you might find a use for them again? And do you know what happens to the fabric when kept for a long period of time without use? 

These are the questions Kloth Cares hope to raise in its efforts to reduce fabric waste. Founded in 2013, the Kuala Lumpur-based social enterprise fronted by Nik Suzila Hassan and Sarahan Kedah who are on a mission to keep fabric and plastics away from landfills, through a circular economy business model.
