Rethread Africa

Beyond the glamour, the dark side of the fashion industry consists of micro-plastic pollution, textile waste, toxic emissions and use of fossil fuels. We're celebrating #WorldEnvironmentDay‌2024 in the lab, using agro-waste and bacteria to create planet-positive materials 🌎

Today, we celebrate Kenya's journey to self governance and reflect on the power of independence. Happy Madaraka Day from Rethread Africa! #MadarakaDay2024

We're seeing great potential in sugarcane bagasse as a feedstock in challenging the status quo in the fashion and materials industry. We've transitioned into the lab, working towards using agricultural biomass in place of fossil fuels. Super excited to see how this unfolds!

Today, we celebrate all the individuals contributing their time and energy to make our world a better place. Every effort, big or small, contributes to our mission of creating a greener, more equitable future through sustainable materials. Happy #LabourDay2024!

♻️🌍🎉 Made it to the top 15 ClimateTech startups for Africa Tech Awards. Exciting times to be working on carbon-neutral materials at a time when climate change is wreaking havoc on communities across the continent. 👏🎉 Congratulations to all the other incredible teams 🌿👕♻️🌍

🌙✨ Eid Mubarak from all of us at Rethread! ✨🌙 As we celebrate this day of joy, reflection, and gratitude, we are reminded of the beauty in diversity and the strength in unity. May this Eid al-Fitr be a beacon of hope, love, and renewal for all. #EidMubarak #EidAlFitr2024

Exciting news! 🌟 We have been nominated for the #EarthshotPrize2024! Turning agricultural waste into sustainable biomaterials, we're crafting a future where fashion and sustainability intersect. 🌱➡️👕 Let's build a waste-free world together! 🌿👕♻️🌍 #EarthshotCapeTown

Wishing you and your loved ones a #HappyEaster this #EasterWeekend.
