    Wealth in Waste: LA's Textile Upcycling and Recycling

    Rewilder exists to convince the world that there is wealth in waste. We focus on textile waste, partnering with industrial giants to identify, divert, and upcycle waste materials that are worthy of a second life. Upcycling materials is the best end-of-life solution for the environment. The LA2050 grant will fund the expansion of our current successful operation - R+D design lab plus high-tech upcycling - into a larger facility including closed-loop textile recycling (old clothes and fabrics into quality recycled fibers).
