Making the textile industry more transparent and sustainable, that is our mission. Because let's be honest. We all wear clothes every day, but do you know what material your pants or sweater is made of? And how and by whom? And what went into it? We often know very little about it.
Nowadays we consume a lot, but fortunately we are becoming more and more aware. For example, reusing products is becoming more popular by the day. Everyone knows Marktplaats, and you have probably heard of Vinted?
At Vodde we are fans of circular processes. By sharing, reusing, repairing or recycling existing materials and products for as long as possible, we extend the life cycle of products. Because growing old, that's what we all want, right?
With our unique Vodde yarn , made from 100% recycled discarded textiles, we want to contribute a sock to a circular economy. Because in the Netherlands alone, we throw away around 554 kilotons (!) of textiles every year. Not only does this have to change, with our unique Vodde yarn we prove that this can be done differently.
Did you know that the Dutch government has ambitious goals? In 2030, the Netherlands must be 50% circular and in 2050 even completely! In this way, we can all reduce the pressure on the environment. And yes, all together. Because sustainable socks will not change the world; it is the people who wear them who do… That is you!
