The factory also provides employment where the workers at the factory recycle unwanted clothes to produce around 6 to 12 new textile products such as mattresses, pillows and more every day.

First, they need to shred the clothes to small pieces, and then burn and discolour them. Although the task is difficult, but it help people recycle their old clothes.

In the first two weeks, the factory saw no one come in with old, unwanted clothes. Now the factory is buzzing with customers coming in to recycle their old clothes.
