In a world increasingly conscious of environmental impact, recycling alone is no longer enough. Businesses are looking for more meaningful ways to embed sustainability into their operations – and at Arrow, we believe it starts with rethinking the entire lifecycle of what we wear to work.
That's why we're proud to introduce AROUND®, our step towards true uniform sustainability, built on the principles of the circular economy. AROUND® is not just about recycling uniforms at the end of their use; it's about creating a continuous loop of value, innovation, and environmental responsibility.
Why Traditional Uniforms Contribute to the Problem
Each year, millions of tonnes of clothing and textiles are sent to landfill. Uniforms – designed for durability and daily use – are no exception. Once retired, many garments have no structured pathway for reuse, recycling, or repurposing, leading to unnecessary waste and lost value.
At Arrow, we saw an opportunity to do better. To move beyond recycling and create a future where uniforms never truly reach an end – they simply evolve.
Introducing AROUND®: Closing the Loop
AROUND is Arrow's practical, action-driven approach to sustainability.
Through AROUND®, we:
- Collect used uniforms from customers at the end of their lifecycle.
- Repurpose or recycle materials into new products, fabrics, or practical applications.
- Reduce environmental impact by keeping valuable resources in circulation.
This programme is designed to minimise waste and help businesses take real, tangible steps toward a circular economy.
The Business Benefits of Joining AROUND®
Participating in AROUND® offers more than environmental benefits. Businesses that engage with the programme can:
- Strengthen their brand reputation by demonstrating leadership in sustainability.
- Increase employee pride through genuine environmental initiatives.
- Prepare for future regulatory and customer expectations around waste management.
- Support broader environmental goals with practical, measurable actions.
By joining AROUND®, businesses become part of a movement towards smarter, more sustainable uniform management.
Coming Soon: The AROUND® Launch Video
To bring the AROUND® journey to life, we're excited to soon share our new video showcasing how retired uniforms find new purpose through the programme.
