Assembled Threads: 2023 Winner – Premier's Recognition Award
Assembled Threads is the winner of the 2023 Premier's Recognition Award. Assembled Threads creates meaningful, purposeful employment and training for culturally and linguistically diverse garment artisans. It provides a flexible manufacturing hub where no one is hindered by a lack of English or education, or is discriminated against because of age or religion.
It champions locally made, recycled-first uniform options for the construction and health industries, providing practical solutions and supporting companies to be responsible and accountable for the end-of-life stewardship of their uniform procurement pipelines.
Assembled Threads produced a range of hi-vis vests sourced completely from recycled material components and grew its range of scrubs, hoodies and shirts made from locally made fabrics to move towards circular work apparel, saving an estimated 2117.5 kg of emissions associated with textile landfill waste.
