Empowering creativity through our leftover fabrics with BENDig Materials
BENDig Materials
By repurposing high-quality fabrics from our production processes, we provide local designers, makers, and students with the tools they need to bring their ideas to life. This initiative not only reduces waste, but also fosters a circular economy.
At Sioen, we are dedicated to advancing sustainability through supporting innovative practices that benefit both the environment and our communities. Our partnership with BENDig Materials addresses the issue of waste in the production process. Many companies generate surplus materials - unused textiles, cutting remnants, and more - that often end up in landfills or are downgraded. BENDig believes these materials still have more to offer.
Through our collaboration with BENDig, we supply these surplus fabrics, providing local designers, makers, and organizations with access to valuable resources. This initiative collects all kinds of resources from different companies. They have created an online store, where individuals can shop around for fabrics and materials that they need. In this way, the materials are repurposed and not lost to the landfill.
By giving these materials a second life, we reduce our waste, empower creativity and stimulate the development of a circular economy. At Sioen, we understand that sustainability is a collective effort. By connecting surplus materials with those who can use them, we contribute to a more resource-conscious society.
