The Blue Jeans Go Green™ Denim Recycling Program (original) (raw)

Naturally Rooted In

Let’s do good in denim.

Join us in recycling your denim and doing good for the planet. Thanks to the natural, sustainable properties of cotton fibers, authentic denim pieces can be transformed, rather than thrown away.

Let’s close the loop on textile waste

Get circular with us! When it comes to fashion, circularity is as simple as wearing denim made from cotton and recycling well-loved pieces. Round ‘em up and show the planet some love.

With cotton, it’s easy to do good on Earth Day. Choose clothes that are natural, durable, and recyclable (like denim made from cotton) and celebrate 50 years of Earth Day the sustainable way.

Recycle Denim

Give old denim

new purpose

When you recycle your old denim through our program, we help transform it into creative new products, from insulating material for building efforts to pet bed inserts to thermal insulation used in sustainable food and pharmaceutical packaging.

Recycle Denim

Together we’re making a difference

Recycling conserves natural resources, saves energy, and reduces the need for landfill space1, while helping to reduce the approximately 17 million tons of textile waste discarded each year2. For nearly two decades, we’ve been helping reduce textile waste to make a positive impact on our planet.
