There is no such thing as 'away'. When we throw something it must end up somewhere.
Company Overview:
At TULI, we are committed to not only delivering stylish and high-quality garments but also to leading in ESG initiatives. Our brand's core values priorities sustainability, and we continually seek innovative ways to minimize our environmental footprint while maximizing positive social impact.
Introduction to Sustainability Mission:
Our sustainability mission extends beyond the production of our garments. We recognize the significant environmental impact of textile waste and are dedicated to reducing it through innovative solutions. One such initiative involves repurposing fabric scraps generated during our production processes.
