CLOTHES AND TEXTILES

National research shows that the average UK household owns around £4,000 worth of clothes – and around 30% of the contents of our wardrobes have not been worn for at least a year!

MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR TEXTILES

Extending the average life of clothes by just three months of active use would lead to a 5-10% reduction in each of the carbon, water and waste footprints. It would also mean we get much more value out of our clothes and save money. There are lots of ways to give unloved or forgotten textiles a new lease of life – from donating them for reuse or recycling, to repairing or maybe even upcycling them into something new and exciting. Smarter buying and better care can also help to make your clothes look good for longer.

DON'T THROW THEM AWAY!

MTD CLOTHING LTD accept a wide variety of clothes and other textiles. Clothes, shoes and other textiles are sorted, with good quality items being worn again in the UK or abroad.

By collecting textiles for reuse and recycling we raise money for local charities and help the environment too!
