About

The project involves manufacturing products (initially cushions) from downgraded fabrics and downgraded and/or recycled accessories (threads, zippers, fillings, etc.), within the framework of the circular economy.

The main objectives are to develop a sustainable economic market, reduce waste generation, and create local employment opportunities internally, as well as externally through collaboration with sheltered workshops (ETA).
