But ultimately these products will still be damaging to the environment.<\/span><\/p><p><\/p><p><span style=\"font-family:'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\">The Circular Economy is designed for products to be returned and remade again and again. This is the process we implement at GGWP Clothing.<\/span><\/p><p><\/p><p>The fashion industry is a linear model where resources are taken and turned into waste. Lowering impact or buying less slows fast fashion down but it doesn't change the outcome. Our manufacturing process, is fundamentally different because circular design is applied at every stage.<\/p><p><\/p><p><img src=\"https:\/\/images.teemill.com\/niY0TsB8N6fa5nwZ4F3FOGsTF0zFwsvf4vVnANrd1KdeHrv7.jpeg\" alt=\"niY0TsB8N6fa5nwZ4F3FOGsTF0zFwsvf4vVnANrd1KdeHrv7.jpeg\" \/><\/p><p><span style=\"font-family:inherit;\">Every year 100 billion new items of clothing are produced. A truck full of clothing is burned, or buried in a landfill every second. The textiles industry is the second largest polluter in the world, and slowing fast fashion down a bit won't fix it.<\/span><\/p><p><\/p><p><span style=\"font-family:inherit;\">But when we take the waste material at the end, and make new products from it at the start, it changes everything. That's what we've done.<\/span><\/p><p><\/p><p><span style=\"font-family:inherit;\">Today we make new products from that waste material. Products we're proud to say are rubbish. All organic, without plastic, and it means you can wear these products knowing they'll never go to waste. That's what real sustainability means to us.<\/span><\/p><p><\/p><p>So that is Circular Design. <span style=\"font-family:'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\">Products are designed to be returned and remade again and again, so they never enter landfill, we call it Remill.
