A circular economy for fashion requires garments designed for reuse. Elastane poses a significant challenge, and emerging alternatives vary in performance. Developers must clearly identify the specific problems they aim to solve and the types of garments their materials are best suited for.

In this episode of the Circular Economy Show, Georgia Parker from Fashion for Good and Lewis Shuler from Paradise Textiles discuss how ‘Stretching Circularity’ benchmarks these materials, helping brands and designers select the appropriate stretch for each garment.

Collection and recycling systems are vital for a circular economy, yet many regions lack the necessary infrastructure. The report ‘Closing the Loop: Transforming urban waste systems and protecting Brazil’s rivers’ reveals that Brazil could recover BRL 14 billion in recyclable value currently lost to landfills. Approximately 800,000 waste pickers play a crucial role in this system, often without recognition or fair compensation.

In partnership with the City of Recife, Brazil's Federal Government, and companies like Mars, Nestlé, @PepsiCo, and Unilever, we aim to invest R$300 million in enhancing collection and recycling systems. This initiative seeks to transform urban waste management and provide valuable lessons for policymakers across Brazil. Learn more about our efforts at Ellen MacArthur Foundation.
