Fashion's Circular Transition

Welcome back to the Futurist podcast. This conversation was created in collaboration with the episode’s sponsor, Primark.

Primark is committed to making more sustainable fashion affordable for all. Through Primark Cares, the retailer’s sustainability strategy, they have made nine commitments focused on their products, the planet, and the people who make their clothes. These commitments range from making all its clothes from recycled or more sustainably sourced materials by 2030 to halving carbon emissions across its value chain over the next seven years and pursuing a living wage for workers in its supply chain.

Today, I speak with Nick Lambert, Head of Circularity, and Claire Scanlon, Solutions Manager of Circular Design at Primark Cares at Primark HQ, Dublin.

We discuss what circularity means in fashion, the challenges the team faces in closing the loop from a product’s design to its end of life and how Primark is working with organisations and other retailers to find big solutions to fashion’s most pressing issues.
