renewal squared
Reducing the amount of clothing and textiles ending up in landfills.
We will leave the world a better place than we inherited it.
What do we do?
Welcome to Renewal Squared, your dedicated partner in revolutionizing clothing reuse and recycling practices. We collaborate with municipalities, retail businesses, educational institutions, and non-profit organizations to implement community-driven clothing collection initiatives. Our mission is to tackle the fashion industry's alarming impact on the environment, as it accounts for 10% of global carbon emissions and ranks as the second-largest industrial consumer of water.
Join us in our quest to minimize the staggering 85% of clothing and textiles that unnecessarily clutter our landfills. Together, we can make a substantial difference in curbing clothing waste and nurturing a circular economy mindset within our communities. Let's reshape the future of fashion – one garment at a time.
