Green Economy
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
When we created TORE we pledged to take a holistic approach in terms of sustainability.
Following the zero-waste hierarchy, we want to reduce the use of raw materials and continuously reuse and recycle items for the production of all different kinds of new products.
Once a sock reaches the end of its life, we ask you to take the sensible approach and first reuse it for a different purpose and then recycle it at your local recycling centre.
Your sock may end up as wall insulation or padding for car seats instead of going to a landfill.
Reuse
Reduce waste by giving a new purpose to an old socks. You could use it as:
- A sock puppet to keep the little ones entertained
- A dust cloth for a good spring clean
- Teddy bear stuffing for the arts and craft enthusiasts
- A dog toy for your furry best friend
Recycle
We recommend you carefully dispose of your socks:
- At your local recycling centre
- By donating them to a registered charity
- By conveniently donating them to a charity collection service that collects clothing direcly from your door, such as the British Heart Foundation or Clothes Aid
