THE HAINES COLLECTION
The Haines Collection high-end eco fabric business… … so far they have saved over 1,500 metres of fabric from landfill. That’s a stretch of fabric nearly five times the height of The Shard since launching in 2018.
Jules hand picks and sells luxury high-end fabric and wallpaper from stock that is surplus and otherwise destined for landfill. It’s available online at a discount to the retail price and it’s making a positive change to help reduce the waste from fabric houses. The products are usually available in small quantities, so it’s most definitely worth being decisive.
