Our Partner: KISWA

At Second Stitch, we are proud to collaborate with KISWA, a leader in textile recycling. This partnership allows us to make a real, tangible impact on the environment by transforming used clothes into new, sustainable materials. KISWA’s expertise in the recycling process is an essential part of our mission to promote sustainability and reduce textile waste.

Who is KISWA?

KISWA is a cutting-edge recycling company dedicated to turning waste into valuable resources. With a focus on sustainable practices, they specialize in breaking down textiles and repurposing them into new forms. Their innovative approach to recycling ensures that materials that would otherwise contribute to landfill waste are instead given a second life. By partnering with KISWA, Second Stitch is able to ensure that the clothes we collect are processed in the most environmentally responsible way possible.

What Does KISWA Do for Second Stitch?

While Second Stitch manages the collection of used clothes from participants, KISWA plays a vital role in the next step of the process. Once the clothes are gathered, KISWA will take responsibility for the recycling of these items. Using state-of-the-art facilities and sustainable techniques, they will break down the clothes into yarn, which can be reused for new textile products. This process ensures that the clothing doesn't end up in landfills but instead contributes to a circular economy where resources are reused and repurposed.
