Fast fashion items overwhelm Sweden's recycling centres.

Sweden's recycling centres are overflowing with clothes after an EU-wide ban this year on throwing away textiles, leaving overwhelmed municipalities eager to have fast fashion giants take responsibility.

Swedes throw away 90000 tonnes of textiles per year, or 10kg per person. The EU average is 19kg, according to 2022 statistics, up from 17 in 2019.
