Well,

Patrick FriskGUEST
The hierarchy of value in textile waste, and still today this is the case, begins at the top with, if I can take this one garment out of this big pile, and get $2 for it, $1 for it, get, I don't know, $3 a pound for it, then it's valuable, right? It has value.

Patrick FriskGUEST
And then when I go one click down, the stuff that I can't actually take out for wearability, some of that other stuff I might be able to sell to somebody that is using it for insulation or padding or something like that.

Patrick FriskGUEST
But then you get to a little bit further down and actually now you have a lot of textile waste and that has no home.

Patrick FriskGUEST
Well, it's not true that it has no home because we also sort for export because what is wearability or something that people are prepared to pay for in the Western world might be very different in the third world.

Patrick FriskGUEST
So there's still one more sorting to be done for people to try to pick out some nuggets.

Madeleine ThomasHOST
How did you go about that? And it's just really interesting how then, yeah, you've had to pivot and switch to then create and building this system.
