ADKN UpLife - Zero Waste, Upcycled and Deadstock Collection
At ADKN, we believe that fashion should not come at the expense of our planet. As advocates of ethical work environments, sustainable supply chains, and eco-friendly practices, we are thrilled to introduce our latest collection, ADKN UpLife. This collection breathes new life into sustainable deadstock materials or discarded and rejected designs, and we invite you to explore its beauty and innovation.
Our dedication to zero-waste practices is at the heart of ADKN UpLife Collection. We use fabric scraps, leftover overproduced materials and discarded or rejected designs that would have otherwise gone to landfills to create and re-create beautiful designs, ensuring that every bit of material serves a purpose. By recycling and upcycling every scrap, we strive to maintain a truly zero-waste atelier and help reduce overall fashion waste. Since embarking on this journey, our textile contribution to landfills has been zero—a milestone we are incredibly proud of.
We believe in full transparency when it comes to our production processes. We openly disclose the sustainability of our garments and the truth behind their pricing. Here are some of the incredible environmental benefits our UpLife collection has achieved:
- Water Savings: We save an average of 917 liters of water per dress and 425 liters per top.
- Carbon Emissions Reduction: We reduce carbon emissions by an average of 5.4 kg per dress and 3.35 kg per top.
- Energy Savings: We save around 77.4 kWh per dress and 31.25 kWh per top.
- Fabric Repurposing: We repurpose an average of 0.5 kg of deadstock fabric per dress and 0.25 kg per top.
We are deeply grateful for your support as we continue this journey toward a more sustainable future. Together, we can make a difference in the world of fashion.
