Clothing relay stations for your donations to Séméac<

For your clothing donations, these stations are located in several places in the town: near the swimming pool, in the city center.

So there is no need to drop them off at the associations. The latter will receive them via the clothing relays after they have been sorted, unless you find that the container is full.

To fully understand, read on.

What happens to your donations? 97% recovery of your clothes.

Thanks to your donations, the Relais collects more than 1,800 tons of textiles every week, which represents 55% of the collection in France. These textiles are transported to 14 sorting centers, to experience different fates depending on their condition and quality.

The second life of textiles takes place at the ERelais. Some are sent directly to associations such as the Secours Populaire. Others are resold at low prices in the 73 Ding Fring boutiques of the Relais or intended for export.

Recycling too

Textiles that can no longer be worn are recycled by the Relais for the production of wiping cloths for industry, or for the manufacture of insulating materials from which the Métisse® insulation is made.

Non-recovered material represents 3% of the volumes collected, most of which will be used for energy recovery. At Le Relais, every penny generated is reinvested in the fight against exclusion.
