Refashion was born from a desire among professionals from the Clothing, Household Linen and Footwear industry and business to join forces in order to meet their environmental responsibility.
Firstly, for member companies, it consists in complying with their legal obligations since 2007; secondly, it reflects a desire to participate in developing new design and production approaches for Clothing, Household Linen and Footwear items which meet needs in terms of recyclability and responsible consumer expectations.
In September 2020, Eco TLC took a new turn to become Refashion. More than just a new name for the eco-organisation, Re-fashion is the proposal of a common project: To re-think our industry in order to make it 100% circular.
