Textile Recycling Service

£36.00

Turn your textile waste into a cushion insert


Do you have a bag of fabric scraps you don't know what to do with? We're really excited to launch our new textile recycling service with Fibre Lab, a Hackney-based business offering innovative textile recycling solutions. Your fabric scraps will be shredded in a two-step process to create a soft, plush fibre which will then used to stuff a 40x40cm cushion insert. The cushion insert will be sewn up from damaged hotel sheets, meaning your new cushion insert is created from 100% waste. 

When should I book? 

We're currently taking bookings for the first recycling run of 50kg. We recommend booking now to secure your spot (there are 70 available). You do not need to have your textile waste ready when you book, just please make sure you send your 700g of textile waste to The New Craft House by mid November. 

Shipping address: 32 Bocking Street, London, E8 3FP. 

The cost includes the price of shipping your finished cushion insert to you (UK only). 

Recycling rules

+ 700g of mixed textile waste - this can be any fibres! This can be scraps from your sewing projects, but also unwearable garments/ home textiles. 

+ No buttons, zips, hardware, pins, etc. Please remove all non-textile components.  

+ If dropping off waste in person please bring it in a reusable container/bag. We will weigh it and return your bag right away. 

+ If posting your waste to us please package in recyclable packaging (no plastic please!). Ship to 32 Bocking Street, London, E8 3FP.  Please make sure your name is clearly marked on the package. 

We will be recycling your waste 50kg at a time, so your waste will contribute towards this and the finished cushions will be a mixture of everyone's waste. When your waste has been sent to be shredded you will receive an email update letting you know your waste is on the move! 

This is a new service we are offering so we welcome any feedback! Please email studio@thenewcrafthouse.com with 'textile recycling' as the subject line.
