Hot sustainability news: New circular label and win an award

There are great news for everyone involved in sustainable fashion and circularity: The Circul'R Ecosystem network recently created a label for circular economy start-ups. And you can enter the Sustainable Fashion Awards 2018 with your sustainable project until end of August.

Circul'R connecting circular start-ups

It all started with a great trip: Jules Coignard and Raphaël Masvigner travelled around the world to meet 50 entrepreneurs in 22 countries - from the Himalaya to the desert, all in their MUD Jeans! Back from their world tour, they created Circul'R as the first international network of circular start-ups. Just now, they launched the Circul'R Ecosystem label aims to bring circular economy entrepreneurs together in a collaborative ecosystem. It was created to address the common challenges circular start-ups around the world are facing and to accelerate the the transition towards a circular economy. Of course MUD Jeans signed their manifesto right away - join the movement, too!

Welcome to: Sustainable Fashion Awards 2018

The initiator of the Sustainable Fashion Awards 2018, Jak&Jil, dreams of a world where sustainable fashion is the norm, in which every piece of clothing is produced in high-quality design, considering several ethical and environmental aspects. But until this becomes a reality, they aspire to find fashion brands (from emerging to well established ones) that are taking the necessary steps to reduce its footprint and reward the one with the most sustainable idea. To put the cherry on the cake: Half of the prize goes for the winner project and the other half for an NGO (partner of the SFA 2018) picked by the winner.
