Textiles that are suitable for reuse can be recycled in charity shops or placed in clothes recycling bins.
Textile waste that is not suitable for reuse is first sorted by type, colour and grade. The material is then shredded into fibers. High grade shoddy is mixed with virgin fiber and spun into new fiber. Low grade shoddy will be recycled as wipes, stuffing for cushions, carpet underlay, mattress padding and cotton swabs.
