Question 3

How does Denimolite contribute to sustainability?

Accepted Answer

We collaborate directly with fashion brands to repurpose denim off-cuts and post-consumer waste. This approach helps reduce landfill waste and provides an eco-friendly alternative to traditional materials like wood and plastic. Our unique process, unlike municipal recycling, allows us to incorporate all types of waste denim, including stretch denim, which is notoriously difficult to recycle and commonly found in fast fashion garments.
We exclusively use bio-resin in our material. A key component of epoxy, epichlorohydrin, is manufactured using renewable plant-based Glycerol in place of petroleum-based propylene. Additionally, the raw materials going into our bio resins are co-products or waste products of other industrially important processes which means they do not compete with food sources or displace food-based agriculture.
