Why Refab africa

Refab Africa was created from the belief that waste is not the end of a story, but the beginning of a new one. In a world where textile waste continues to grow, we choose to see possibility where others see excess.

Rooted in African creativity and context, we transform discarded textiles into meaningful outcomes that respect both people and the planet. Our approach goes beyond recycling, it is about rethinking value, responsibility, and the role creativity plays in shaping a more sustainable future.

At the heart of Refab Africa is collaboration. We work alongside creatives, communities, and partners who share our vision, because we believe lasting impact is built together, not in isolation.
