We have set out on a mission to redefine what it means to throw something/anything away or out. It has been written in this regard, “there is no away”. So, where does it go?
By up-cycling and repurposing designer and industrial fabrics that we collect from showrooms and events, throw llc. will manufacture Home and Fashion Accessories like pillows, “throws”, shawls and bags in quantities determined by availability of goods, in an effort to approach zero-waste thereby maximizing the utility of the resources for the better.
In much the same way that the homeless living on the streets and less fortunate among us maximize utility of their possessions, we have a moral imperative to make useful that which was once thrown away or out and deemed waste or useless.
Textiles make up almost 6% of the trash entering U.S. landfills every year. throw llc. is reusing and diverting these materials from the landfill into your hands.
Proof of concept can be seen in this recent story-telling video trailer. “Banners to Bags”- A Commitment to Sustainability, highlights the hands-on manufacturing process and supply network involved in the making of VIP and Press Bags made this year from last years trade show banners.
