Our Services

We work with communities to collect and process textile waste, ensuring compliance for our producers and contributing to a more sustainable textile ecosystem.

A PRO is a non-profit or for-profit entity established by producers to collectively manage the end-of-life of their products. In the context of California’s textile EPR law (SB 707), PROs will be responsible for funding and implementing programs to collect, sort, and recycle textile waste.

EPR (Extended Producer Responsibility) is a policy approach that makes producers financially and logistically responsible for the end-of-life management of their products.

Instead of relying solely on taxpayers to fund waste management, EPR shifts the responsibility to the companies that create the products in the first place.
