From textile assessment to finished product.
We assess your retired uniforms, hotel textiles, corporate clothing, or branded surplus. Then we develop the product, prepare prototypes, coordinate local production, check quality, and deliver the finished result.
A practical response to new EU textile rules
From 19 July 2026, large companies in the EU must not destroy unsold apparel, clothing accessories, and footwear, except in limited circumstances. RUD Studio helps organizations explore reuse, upcycling, and remanufacturing routes for eligible textile streams. The exact obligations depend on the product, company size, and project circumstances. This service does not replace legal or compliance advice.
Each project includes the documentation agreed in its scope. Where relevant, this may include material information, project data, Digital Product Passport information, or ESG documentation.
Production is carried out through approved manufacturing partners in Poland. This supports direct communication, quality control, and transparency throughout the project.
