[What is PLUS∞GREEN PROJECT?]
PLUS∞GREEN PROJECT is a project that aims to realize a lifestyle where sustainability feels close at hand by recycling fibers that would normally be discarded and reusing them as a growth medium for plants. This fiber recycling growth medium was established through years of research and development by Earth Conscious Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Tokushima City, Tokushima Prefecture; Representative Director: Yasuhisa Aoyama) and Kindai University.
It is said that 1,300 tons of clothing are incinerated or landfilled daily in Japan, and environmental burdens are incurred to process the clothing discarded every day, so it is necessary to change the current situation. We aim to spread a new habit of "reusing discarded clothing and other textile products as soil created from fibers to increase greenery."
