UPCYCLE PROJECT

Beyond Making.
A New Beginning for Materials.

Fabric kept in factory stock. Fabric that is no longer needed.
Its story may not be over yet.

Partner Factories and FabCycling: Creating Together

Manufacturing sites often hold fabric in stock, including materials that are no longer scheduled for use.

CTX’s partner factories collaborate with the upcycling project FabCycling to give their stock and unused fabrics a new purpose through upcycling.

Finding new value in unused fabric and transforming it into fabric yarn and products.
This, too, is part of what making means to us.

About FabCycling

FabCycling is an upcycling project that transforms surplus fabrics from manufacturing sites into new materials and products.

By cutting fabric on the bias and turning it into yarn, FabCycling creates a new craft material: FabCycling fabric yarn.

Bringing leftover fabric back into the world of making.
That is FabCycling.
