Material Exchange launches online deadstock market
22/06/2023
Suppliers who sign up for the Deadstock Depot benefit from having their deadstock fabrics digitized and marketed online and at physical shows.
Brands will have access to attribute data, fabric detail sheets, internal test reports, and will be able to order samples.
Ben Felton, Material Exchange’s chief strategy officer, said: “More clothes are being made than ever before – and huge quantities of them are going to landfills or being burned. This is why the use of deadstock is so important.
“These leftover fabrics have already been produced so there’s no expenditure of water, energy, or virgin raw materials to create something new. And with the Deadstock Depot, they’re available and accessible on a global level for brands to use in creating their upcoming collections.”
