Description
WRAP's Materials Systems Transformation programme seeks to design out waste during production and consumption and retain its value and mitigate the damage being inflicted on our planet. We take a holistic approach to protect and restore our natural world: gathering 3 and considering the evidence, collaborating with all partners in the system and proposing circular solutions that work across the supply chain.
This Framework will support WRAP's ongoing efforts in technical and policy support, stakeholder engagement, and citizen-facing campaigns across multiple regions by aiming to appoint suppliers who can help WRAP reach our target outcomes for both Transforming Textiles & Prevent Problem Plastics & Packaging.
The Framework has been divided into 2 Lots. Organisations can apply for one or both Lots should they wish. Tailored applications should be submitted for each Lot and will be evaluated separately. Work awarded under the Framework will be on a call-off basis and awarded either through a mini-competition or direct award.

Lot 1. Transform Textiles
Description
WRAP's global ambition is to halt the increase in the carbon and water footprint of the textiles industry and set it on a trajectory to net zero by 2050 in line with the Paris Agreement commitments. Clothing is thought to be currently responsible for around 10% of global greenhouse gas emissions. To achieve this, the current linear system of 'take, make and dispose' needs to be transformed into a sustainable and circular textiles system through the application of just transition principles. This will require a decoupling of virgin resource use from growth and decarbonisation of the value chain.WRAP will focus on the following product categories for high impact, but not limited to these areas:✓ Clothing: Every day clothing including fashion is the top priority, with workwear and footwear also being in scope. o Workwear is identified as an area where there are key opportunities for circularity.✓ Household textiles: This includes 'foldable household textiles such as bed linen.' Furniture is a lower priority but not out of scope.WRAP will focus its actions on:• The design, production and manufacture, use and purchase of new textiles to be designed for longevity, durability, recyclability, repair, rental, remanufacture and disassembly amongst others.• Adoption of circular business models to promote reuse of textiles and retain textiles at their highest value for as long as possible.• Facilitation of closed loop recycling systems and open loop recycling systems to be in place.• Citizen behaviour change• Adoption of innovation to drive change.Further impact analysis will be undertaken by WRAP to identify the hotspots and biggest opportunities for carbon reduction, and in which geographies to operate.
