Bring along your ideas, your passion for building relationships and a hands-on mentality to deliver our mission right from Berlin!

Why Kleiderly

100 billion garments of clothing are produced every year, of which 90% end up in landfill and incineration. This produces millions of tonnes of CO2 emissions every year, with this number set to rise significantly to meet our clothing demands. At Kleiderly, we have invented a technology to recycle this waste into a new material, which can be turned into anything, from furniture, to suitcases, to headphones. The opportunities are endless to help reduce the environmental impact of fashion.
