OceanSafe

Designing sustainable supply chains for fully circular textiles

Rethinking how the textile industry works is a key part of creating a sustainable future. The sector is responsible for an estimated 10% of global carbon emissions worldwide, generates 92 million tonnes of waste each year, and accounts for 35% of global microplastic pollution. 

OceanSafe helps brands and retailers develop and manufacture fully circular textiles, designing sustainable supply chains and replacing cotton with biodegradable, toxin-free alternatives. Building on their coveted Cradle to Cradle gold certification, CEO Manuel Schweizer and Chief Marketing Officer Matthias Fuchs outline their ambition to create an industry standard for sustainable textiles.
