Every year, our industry produces enough textiles to clothe the planet many times over, and yet, warehouses, landfills, and incinerators are overflowing.
We’re surrounded by excess, but somehow still running short on solutions.
Here’s the reality:
-
73% of clothing ends up in landfill or incinerated.
-
12% is downcycled into uses like insulation or rags.
-
Less than 1% is recycled into new clothing.
That means almost everything we make is designed for a short life... not a long one.
At Weslynn, we believe the answer isn’t more of the same. It’s not another trend dressed up as sustainability.
It’s rethinking the entire chain, from how materials are made to how products live, move, and return.
That’s why we’re focused on building systems that work better:
-
Materials designed to return to nature or stay in circulation.
-
Local, integrated manufacturing that reduces waste, time, and emissions.
-
Technology that makes every step transparent, trackable, and efficient.
-
Circular systems that keep products moving, not piling up.
This isn’t about chasing trends or green labels.
It’s about building the infrastructure fashion needs to finally manage its own footprint and proving that better systems make better business.
Because if we want fashion to change, we have to change how fashion is built.
