Recycle your clothes
Zebra Vegan Shop rewards your clothing donations thanks to its partnership with Redonner.fr
Increasing the share of volumes of clothing collected and recycled is a major challenge to enable the emergence of circular fashion, an obligatory step to close the loop on ethical, responsible and sustainable fashion.
As the founder of a committed brand, it is important to me to promote the reuse and recycling of clothing and materials and therefore to promote the development of the sorting and recycling sector in France.
So it is with pleasure that I decided to partner with Redonner.fr to reward your donations of unused or used clothing. You can benefit from a 10% discount on Zebra Vegan Shop by donating your clothes through Redonner.fr
With Redonner, all your clothing donations are included in the regulated sorting and recycling sector and contribute to social and solidarity actions.
We explain everything to you!
Why recycle my clothes?
Today, more than 60% of our clothes end up in the trash, or nearly 500,000,000 kg per year, to which must be added the ~30kg of unused textiles, household linen and shoes that sleep in the closet of each French person. All of them could have a new life, if they were collected and sorted to be revalued.
Considering the volumes considered, the management of the end of life of our used or unused clothing has become a MAJOR issue for fashion which, let us remember, is the second most polluting industry in the world.
The existing linear economic model (production > consumption > waste) must evolve to make it easier to optimize the life cycle of products and materials, and to promote the emergence of circular fashion.
This development therefore involves producing better , consuming better and recycling our clothes better .
And to finish convincing you to participate, 1kg of clothes collected = 25kg of CO2 emissions avoided …
How to participate?
- Redonner takes back all your clothes, underwear, small fashion accessories whatever their condition and brands, provided they are dry and clean.
-
Drop off your clothes, well wrapped in a bag , at one of the 15,000 Redonner partner collection points (Red Cross, Le Relais, Emmaüs, Secours populaire, etc.).
-
As soon as your donation is validated by Redonner, your account is credited with RE points (2kg = 20 RE points = 1 reward) exchangeable for our rewards.
How do I validate my clothing donation?
To benefit from your RE points, you must absolutely complete the procedure detailed below:
-
Take a photo of your donation bag in front of the collection point,
-
Send the photo by email to redonner@redonner.fr , or by Instagram message (@redonner.fr)
-
Your account is credited with your RE points within 24 hours.
What happens to the collected clothes?
100% of the clothing is collected by associations or companies in the ECO TLC approved sector , then sorted by hand to be resold to second-hand or textile recycling companies.
Your textile donations therefore help to finance the charitable actions of associations or the return to employment of people in difficulty or in precarious situations.
Regarding outlets, the objective is to maintain a recovery rate of over 90% (i.e. give a new life to over 90% of the clothes collected). Regarding textiles that cannot be reused (~50%), they enter the recycling sector to be cut, shredded, frayed or crushed and transformed into rags, insulation items, new clothes or secondary raw materials.
Why Give Back? What is the difference with existing solutions?
Redonner is an innovative circular economy startup that, by relying on existing players in the socially committed textile sorting and recycling sector, wants to give everyone back the habit of donating their clothes to enable the emergence of circular fashion.
Thus, Redonner complements existing solutions and positions itself as a collection facilitator that allows Zebra Vegan Shop to continue its commitment to circular fashion by offering you, with the reward mechanism, a rewarding and concrete solution for the recovery and revaluation of your used or unused textiles which relies on the existing network of the sorting and recycling sector (red cross, le relais, gebetex, etc.) , a driver of activity and economic, social and environmental performance.
So are you ready to sort out your cupboards and be part of a circular economy?
