What We Do
Stichting Enviu Nederland is a not-for-profit public benefit organisation that uses impact-driven entrepreneurship to solve the world's biggest social and environmental issues. Enviu builds companies that address these problems; with the aim to drive failing markets towards a new normal. It accelerates systemic change by building and supporting innovations that improve livelihood and the environment. Enviu has been working in five program areas over the past 20 years: financial inclusion, food, plastic waste, circular textiles, and sustainable shipping. In India, Enviu began its work in the circular textiles sphere in 2016.
Together with CAIF, Enviu aims to establish an integrated Circular Textile Waste Management (CTWM) model in India. Our common goal is to recover and reclaim value from (domestic) textile waste while creating green and sustained livelihoods for the informal waste pickers.
