OUR RESPONSIBLE SOLUTIONS
Uniform Recycling Program
We're here to help you dispose of your uniforms securely and sustainably.
The Mission:
To keep uniforms and other textiles out of the landfill, whilst investing in circular solutions for the textile industry.
Have you considered how your corporate identity might be used fraudulently or whether your teams are thinking about the environment when disposing of obsolete or worn uniforms? Our processes can help you to account for every item and contribute towards your company's sustainability goals.
What do your uniforms get recycled into?
The various yarns from your uniforms make a variety of recycled products such as totes, cushions, gloves, socks, and rugs, to name a few.
How Does It Work?
1.
Place your old uniforms into the Sayka Uniform Recycling Bins.
2.
Contact Sayka to arrange the collection of your old uniforms once your bins are full.
3.
Sayka will weigh your uniforms when they arrive in our warehouse and place them in our bulk uniform recycling bin. Your uniform bins will then be returned.
4.
Your uniforms will then be washed and mechanically shredded. Then the recycled fibre is spun into yarn.

Bisley Recycle
In 2021, Bisley introduced certified recycled polyester yarns into our product range. Made from post-consumer plastic waste, these fibres divert pollution that could otherwise end up in landfill or our waterways. Through careful R&D, we utilise these fibres to develop our durable workwear range. Transitioning conventional polyester to certified recycled options lessens our dependence on fossil fuels and diverts waste from landfills and waterways.
