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.
