ACS Clothing – a sustainable fashion B-corporation – has sponsored UWS PhD research, and further engagement with UWS is planned. The partnership has resulted in patented eco-friendly technology which could significantly reduce the volume of landfill waste from clothing, offering significant environmental benefits.
ACS Clothing embed automation and physical chemistry expertise to underpin the design, development and implementation of a novel in-line garment sanitisation process, addressing existing batch process constraints and unlocking capacity for accelerated growth, supporting a fashion rental model, against a backdrop of environmentally damaging “fast fashion” practices.
