What Is

terracycle

®

TerraCycle is an international leader in innovative sustainability solutions, creating and operating first-of-their-kind platforms in recycling, recycled materials, and reuse. We partner with TerraCycle to recycle LILYSILK fabrics and turn them into new products.

Why We Launched This Program?

The fashion industry is the second-largest polluter in the world after the oil industry. It is the second-largest consumer of the world's water supply, accounting for 10% of global carbon emissions and polluting the oceans with microplastics.
At LILYSILK, we believe that zero waste can make a difference, so we partner with TerraCycle to create a recycling program.
Change doesn't happen overnight, but we will do our best to start small and gradually move towards more significant changes.
