FABRIC is a pioneering non-profit organization dedicated to revolutionizing textile waste management and promoting a truly circular economy within the fashion industry. Our online store, shopfabscrap.org, serves as a vital extension of our mission, acting as a vibrant marketplace for discarded textiles and notions meticulously rescued from landfills. We collaborate extensively with fashion brands, designers, and individuals, working tirelessly to collect their unused fabric scraps, production samples, and deadstock materials, thereby diverting thousands of pounds of valuable resources from waste streams annually. These diverse materials are then expertly sorted, cataloged, and made readily available to the public at exceptionally affordable prices, empowering a new generation of creatives, design students, small businesses, and passionate crafters to access high-quality fabrics while significantly minimizing their environmental footprint.
At shopfabscrap.org, you'll discover an ever-evolving and eclectic mix of fabrics—ranging from luxurious silks and fine wools to versatile cottons, linens, and various synthetics—each piece carrying its own unique story and poised for a second life. Our commitment extends far beyond merely selling materials; we are dedicated to fostering education and inspiring innovation. Every single purchase made through our platform directly supports our broader initiatives, which include hands-on community workshops, comprehensive educational programs on sustainable design, and the development of crucial infrastructure for advanced textile recycling. We firmly believe that textile waste is not refuse but rather a valuable resource brimming with potential. Our platform provides an accessible and engaging avenue for designers, crafters, and conscious consumers to actively participate in sustainable practices. By choosing to shop with us, you are not just acquiring unique and affordable materials; you are actively contributing to a healthier planet, supporting a dynamic community committed to environmental stewardship, and helping to shape a more responsible, innovative, and sustainable future for the fashion world. Join us in transforming textile waste into boundless creative opportunity and impactful environmental stewardship. |
