The Results of Innovation
We took an item that millions of people use, and redesigned its supply chain to help fix the environmental, social and economic problems created by common production methods.
To begin with, our fabric is created from 100% post-consumer recycled PET, which is both plentiful and recyclable. Each e360t shirts saves 3 plastic bottles from ending up in a landfill.
Water pollution is a greater concern, since cotton requires enormous amounts of water to grow. In addition, between 17-20 % of industrial water pollution comes from textile dyeing and treatment. We use digital printing technology which uses no water in the dyeing and printing process. Each e360t shirts saves 8 gallons of fresh water from being polluted.
We save water in both e360t shirts production and in daily use. e360t shirts are durable and require little care. The dyes do not run. The shirts can be washed in cold or warm water, with the whites, with or without bleach. This reduces wash cycles, saves energy, water and money.
Our sourcing and manufacturing process is "on-demand" so a company or organization only buys what they need, when they need it. There are no minimum quantities, pre-press or color separation. This process saves time, money, energy, inventory and also prevents waste.
ISC did not create these technologies or processes. We simply packaged them with American manufacturing to provide income for struggling communities.
