Circular Economy

The Pattern Group is committed to transitioning to a circular economy model, which focuses on minimizing waste and maximizing the value of resources throughout their lifecycle. This plan outlines our strategies and actions to implement circular economy principles across our operations, products, and services. 

The main objectives are to reduce waste, enhance resource efficiency, extend the lifecycle of products, increase the use of sustainable materials, and collaborate with stakeholders to foster a circular economy mindset.

ROM WASTE TO RESOURCE: THE CASCÁMI PROJECT

The CASCÁMI project aims to establish an effective textile waste management and recovery system by addressing four strategic areas: waste data management, logistics and compliance, development and production processes, and reverse supply chain. The integration of a circular economy system and anti-counterfeiting measures into the range of services that Pattern can offer its clients is the result of strategic collaboration between three parties:

• Integration of the new paradigm into the engineering and production processes of the subcontracting chain. 
• Evaluation of the legal compliance of logistics partners and creation of a reverse supply chain for waste recovery with a focus on the circular economy.. 
• Traceability and data management to ensure material management compliance, reduce environmental impacts, and protect against counterfeiting.
• Integration of a Circular Economy and Anti-Counterfeiting System.

THE FIRST FULLY TRACKED AND VERIFIED RECYCLING CHAIN IN ITALY

What we present is not just a traceability system that ensures intellectual property protection against counterfeiting and certifies the circularity of textile waste management. It is also a supply chain that meets legal requirements and guarantees ethics in its processes. Thanks to the logistical and organizational cooperation of the consortium founded by Sistema Moda Italia, Retex Green, of which Pattern SpA is a founding member, and leveraging the experience of the Safe Group, we can now guarantee the protection of our brands’ reputation even in the waste management process.
