ABOUT AIRROBE
We believe it is possible to have a deep interest in fashion and a desire to do better when it comes to our planet and our natural ecosystems.
Currently, the fashion of today largely becomes the waste of tomorrow so, AirRobe is tackling this urgent problem through tech innovation – creating a new way to shop and a new way to extend the life of your purchases.
Transition your shopping cart, and the fashion industry, from a major polluter to a model for sustainability.
To create a circular economy by building a network of designers, retailers and consumers who are transitioning e-commerce into re-commerce.
WHY AIRROBE
Fashion is the 2nd-most polluting industry, globally. Every second a garbage truck worth of clothing is thrown away. By sharing a fashion piece, we give it a longer life and reduce its carbon footprint.
By selling or wearing just one pre-owned fashion piece, you offset:
A note from our founder and ceo,
I believe that we can work together to build new value into a troubled fashion industry. One that focuses on reusing, recycling, and re-selling fashion to create a circular re-commerce system. And, transform one of the world’s biggest polluters into a model for sustainability.
The solution is simple. With one platform the fashion industry, designers, and shoppers can work together as a community to create a new economy.
THE FACTS
When it comes to the environment, fashion is one of the most devastating systems in existence.
Fashion is polluting the world at a rate only topped by that of petroleum.
Fashion is responsible for 10% of global carbon emissions and 90 million tonnes of landfill waste annually.
But, this broken system is fixable, and we all have the ability to help improve these stats.
Making a difference
Our aim is to make quality, ethical and sustainable designer clothing accessible by offering a sustainable way to stay on-trend.
We want to give you an alternative to buying “fast fashion”. We prefer to invest in the best and give clothing a longer life.
Reducing your footprint
According to WRAP, if we extend the life of our clothes by an extra 6-months of active use, we would reduce carbon, water and waste footprints by around 13-20%.
Today, 4 out of 5 items donated end up in landfill. At AirRobe, we want to stop this. Instead, we’ll match fashion and textiles to all kinds of re-use opportunities such as re-sale, upcycle and recycle opportunities.
Powering a resource wise world
