“…Proposed solutions centre on fibre recycling, but products need to be designed with recycling in mind. The technology is not currently where it needs to be for large-scale implementation (Cassidy & Han 2013;Han et al, 2015;Muthu, 2014Muthu, , 2017Tranberg Hansen, 2013;Ulasewicz & Baugh 2013).…”

“…To advance the upcycling method, some researchers have examined consumer upcycling practices and the contributions that could be made to the fashion space (Bridgens et al, 2018;Janigo & Wu, 2015;Janigo et al, 2017;Wilson, 2016). A few studies have focused on preconsumer textile waste as a material source for upcycling practices (Black, 2013;Cassidy & Han, 2013;Ulasewicz & Baugh, 2013). Cuc and Tripa (2018) explored upcycling during the marker making stage as part of the design process to reduce textile waste and increase profits.…”

Upcycling is a design practice that uses pre-consumer textile waste from apparel manufacturers or post-consumer textile waste derived from disassembled garments to create new fashion, providing a sustainable design solution to divert textile waste from landfills. Although Canadian data is scarce, Weber, Lynes and Young (2016) have determined that textile waste in the United States contributed 11.3 million tonnes to landfills in 2009, a 40% increase since 1999. This comparative case study was designed to include a literature review of past academic research, a demographic questionnaire, and interviews with Canadian fashion companies who practice upcycling. The objective of this study was to examine the challenges faced by companies that upcycle and the strategic solutions they integrated into their business models. The findings from this research study contribute to knowledge regarding strategies for designing, producing, and retailing upcycled fashion in Canada and on a global scale.

Bu araştırmanın amacı sürdürülebilir tüketim yollarından biri olan yeniden amaçlandırmanın tüketiciler tarafından pazarlama kapsamında nasıl anlamlandırıldığını keşfetmektir. Araştırmada Zaltman Metafor Çıkarım Tekniğini (ZMET) kullanarak niteliksel bir yaklaşım izlenmiştir. Katılımcılarla görseller üzerinden ZMET aşamaları izlenerek derinlemesine görüşmeler yapılmıştır. Görüşmeler sonucunda analiz edilen veriler ve görseller aracılığıyla kavrama yönelik bir zihin haritası ve bir görsel kolaj elde edilmiştir. Araştırmanın sonuçlarına göre katılımcılar kavramın sürdürülebilirlik özelinde işlevsel yönünün farkındadır. Yaratıcı buldukları bu tüketim şekli hem ikinci bir hayat kazandırarak ürünlerin ömrünü uzatmakta hem de tekrar pazarlanabilir olma potansiyeli taşımaktadır. Yeniden amaçlandırma gücünü nostalji etkisinden ve umuttan almakta gelecek ve geçmişi bir araya getirerek yeni sürdürülebilir bir değer yaratmaktadır. Tüketicilere huzur ve güven, mutluluk ve güzellik getirmekte, tüketiciler özdeşim kurdukları bu kavramda sürdürülebilir dünya olasılığı bulmaktadır.
