303. Richard Toon: Restoring the wardrobe, one garment at a time (IN ENGLISH)

After 20 years as a fashion designer, Richard Toon followed his gut feeling and founded the startup Biorestore together with his colleague Wajahat Hussain. They have developed a product they call a “re-tergent” - you use it in the laundry machine but the main difference is that it restores your old garments and gives them a second life. Simple yet potentially revolutionary. Check out their campaign on Kickstarter. // Podcast host: Christian von Essen // Recorded at KTH Innovation in Stockholm during Sustainable Fashion Day in April 2022.
