Your Exchange Impacts Our Environment

Clothing and textiles are essential items for everyone. But they come at a price.

The clothing and textile industry is considered one of the most polluted industries in the world. The production of clothing is resource-intensive and releases harmful pollutants into the water and air by way of chemicals used for dyeing and greenhouse gases emitted from factories and also by way of transporting the goods. Not to mention that these industries are susceptible to unfair labor practices.

One way people can help reduce the impact of the industry is to reduce buying these items and instead recycle or upcycle what they have. Hence why we created ReUp.

ReUp is an online hub where people can exchange unwanted clothing and textiles they have with others. We want to build our community around recycling and upcycling exchanged clothing and textile items so we've created digital "Thank You" tokens users can exchange with each other as a promise that the exchanged items will be put to good use.

Our vision with ReUp is to build stronger community ties and nurture new skills and creativity that comes with reusing/upcycling among our users. All while they help us with our primary goal of reducing the environmental impact of the clothing and textile industry.
