Manufacturer Provides for Clothing Recycling




Patagonia

"Way too much of what is made these days ends up in the trash at the end of its useful life. At Patagonia, we're working to change that."

"In 2005 we launched our Common Threads Garment Recycling Program, through which customers could return their worn out Capilene® Performance Baselayers to us for recycling. We've now added Patagonia fleece, Polartec® fleece from other manufacturers and Patagonia organic cotton T-shirts to our list of recyclables."Patagonia Common Threads Recycling

"Our long-term goal is to take environmental responsibility for everything we make. Please help us by changing your clothes for good."

"...if you choose to recycle, you'll gain the satisfaction of knowing that your old polyester garments will not end up in a landfill or an incinerator, and that future Patagonia products will require significantly less virgin polyester (less oil) than products from seasons past.
