During the regular metropolitan campaign in April 2018, we provided support to the Sofia Municipality Inspectorate with setting up a mobile textile collection point and proper recovery of the gathered textiles.
The citizens of the Bulgarian capital had the rare occasion to discard their unwanted clothing and home textiles separately from domestic wastes because of the lack of well-laid out textile collection infrastructure at that time.
The campaign turned out to be a huge success and we managed to raise awareness of the negative impact of textile waste and promoted the benefits of separate collection and proper utilization.
It also marked the beginning of a fruitful collaboration between Sofia municipality and our TexCycle collection system.
