From the report

The Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA) has explored potential collaboration with UK-based Wire Waste Private Limited to strengthen textile waste management and promote circularity across Bangladesh’s textile and apparel industry.

BGMEA Vice President Ms. Vidiya Amrit Khan, along with members of the association’s Circular Fashion Unit, held a meeting with representatives of Wire Waste Private Limited to discuss opportunities for collaboration and support for advancing the company’s initiatives in Bangladesh. Wire Waste, a UK-based company with an established presence in India, operates a platform designed to connect stakeholders across the textile value chain. Its approach focuses on creating opportunities for textile waste collection, sorting, upcycling, downcycling and redirecting discarded materials into productive use.

During the discussion, the Wire Waste representatives presented their platform, shared their experience in the Indian market and explained how their model connects different stakeholders to facilitate a more efficient and collaborative textile waste management system. The discussion also highlighted the importance of strengthening connections among textile manufacturers, waste collectors, recyclers and other value chain participants to build a more effective circular ecosystem.
