Bleckmann’s Renewal Workshop
Leveraging Bleckmann’s profound expertise in supply chain management and circularity services, gained from their acquisition of The Renewal Workshop (TRW) in 2022, Coyuchi ensures the meticulous execution of a six-stage certification process for every 2nd Home™ Take Back product. This rigorous process guarantees adherence to the highest quality standards that are essential for resale.
Facilitating a seamless shopping experience, Recurate's ResaleOS™ 2.0 platform integrates seamlessly with Bleckmann's logistics infrastructure. This collaboration provides an all-encompassing recommerce platform, spanning trade-ins, sorting, cleaning, resale, and fulfillment.
To date, the collaboration between Coyuchi and Bleckmann has diverted over 165,046 lbs of textile waste from landfills. Additionally, since the inception of 2nd Home™ Renewed, Coyuchi has repurposed and redistributed over 43,854 pounds of fabric, further solidifying their position as pioneers in sustainable living
“It is rewarding to see the evolution of Bleckmann’s services towards a circular supply chain, with the partnership launch between Recurate for Coyuchi’s 2ndHome resale online and Bleckmann. Bleckmann’s focus is now on operational and logistical processes for brands enabling a broader strategy for resale. Our integration strategy allows us to expand resale to stores, white-label websites, Brand websites, or on marketplaces.”, said Bleckmann’s Circularity Lead, Nicole Bassett.
