We often talk about circularity as a way to reduce costs and save resources. But true circularity is about more than product loops, it’s about people. One of the industries we support in becoming more circular is fashion. A sector full of creativity, innovation, and impact. But also one that reminds us, time and time again, that people are at the heart of every supply chain, and should never be an afterthought. This week marks twelve years since the Rana Plaza disaster, a tragedy that sparked a global movement called Fashion Revolution. On April 24th, 2013, a factory collapsed in Bangladesh, killing 1,134 people, mostly young women making clothes for global brands. It wasn’t a one-off tragedy, but a symptom of a system that puts speed and profit above safety and dignity. Still today, millions of garment workers face unsafe conditions and low wages to keep up with fast fashion. As we rethink circularity, we also need to rethink how value flows through the system. Because circularity isn’t just about materials, it’s about creating fairer, slower, more human systems. What if circularity also meant circular value, where the people making our clothes benefit too? This week, we remember, and recommit to building systems that work for both people and planet. At Circular Innovations - Manufy, we believe environmental and social impact must go hand in hand. Want to be part of the movement? Wherever you are in the world, Fashion Revolution is hosting events, actions, and conversations throughout the week.

🎙️ Wat was dit gezellig! Vorige week mocht ik mijn radiodebuut maken bij niemand minder dan Tessel Zandstra en Maartje Bregman van Happy Times (HTM) Radio. 🌍 We spraken over hoe duurzaamheid óók leuk kan zijn, en hoe bedrijven daarin echt het verschil maken. 💡 Door circulariteit slim in te zetten, kunnen organisaties enorme impact hebben – en daar vertel ik natuurlijk graag over. (En oké, ik kon het niet laten om een kleine oproep te doen… 👀) ➡️ Iedereen zou eigenlijk een account moeten hebben op ons circulariteitsplatform Circular Innovations - Manufy. Just saying. Dank voor de uitnodiging, Happy Times! 🙌 Terugluisteren kan via https://lnkd.in/epEZtmts #Duurzaamheid #Circulariteit #RadioDebuut #HappyTimesRadio #ImpactMaken #CirculairPlatform

Sustainability tip of the week 🌿 Brought to you in collaboration with Lidia Lüttin, Head of Marketing at Carbonfact 💡This week’s tip: Start Collecting Supplier Data Now to Prepare for Upcoming Regulations The textile industry is on the brink of major regulatory changes with the introduction of the Digital Product Passport (DPP) and the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). Given that brands often plan their collections two years ahead, data from 2025 will be critical for compliance in 2027. Collecting and cleaning supplier data can take over a year, so starting now is not just proactive—it's essential to stay ahead. These regulations aim to enhance transparency and accountability in the textile industry. Without accurate supplier data, brands risk falling behind on compliance, damaging their reputation, and missing out on opportunities to lead in sustainability. "2025 + 2 = 2027, so if you're planning collections 2 years ahead, the Digital Product Passport deadline isn't as far as it seems. Starting supplier data collection now doesn’t mean you're proactive – it means you're right on time." – @Lidia Lüttin How? ✔️ Identify all suppliers and sub-suppliers to determine where data needs to be collected. ✔️Inform them about upcoming data requirements and collaborate on collection methods. ✔️Use data management platforms to streamline the collection and cleaning process. ✔️ Identify missing or incomplete data and address these gaps immediately, as this can be the most time-consuming aspect. ✔️ Align your data collection process with your product development cycles and regulatory deadlines. ✔️Establish regular checkpoints to ensure data accuracy and resolve issues promptly. For more insights and tips like this, stay tuned to Circular Textile Days or join us at CTD 2025, where we’ll explore more on sustainable practices and innovations in the textile industry. #passport #ddp #textiles

Project spotlight! We recently teamed up with Primal Soles | Certified B Corp™ on a mission to make hotel stays a little lighter on the planet. In March, they launched their recyclable cork slippers at Hotel Jakarta Amsterdam by WestCord, and they asked Circular Innovations at Manufy to help build a strong case for the change. Our team created a custom impact model that shows exactly how much CO2 and money hotels could save by switching from disposable slippers to Primal Slippers. We visualized the before-and-after journey to clearly highlight the benefits of making circular choices. Primal Soles | Certified B Corp™ can now use this tool to strengthen their pitch to hotels across Europe and show that circularity is not only good for the planet but also beneficial for the bottom line. 🗣️ “Working with Manufy helped us create a clear business case that highlights the value of our circular solution. Having a tailored impact model has been incredibly useful in showing the environmental and financial value of switching from disposable slippers to our recyclable Primal Slippers. Manufy helped us communicate the value of our solution more effectively and validated our numbers, making a real impact when speaking with clients.” – Primal Soles
