Acoustic Blinds and Curtains reuse and recycling program offers drop off points for our products at end of life to create a true circular economy.

We then clean, rehem and reuse these curtains through a social partnership with Redlink. Redlink is an integrated, support and services hub, that strives to increase social inclusion and improve wellbeing, particularly for the most vulnerable and socially isolated residents of Redfern, Sydney.

Those products that cannot be reused, are recycled with Textile Recyclers Australia. Textile Recylers Australia or TRA is more than just a recycling company, TRA collaborates to find circular solutions for unwanted textiles. Providing recycling solutions for fashion, uniforms and other textiles whilst creating ‘closed loop’ programs one garment at a time.

This program is connected to our sustainability goals.

Acoustic Blinds and Curtains donates 1% of net profit each year to Effective Altruism.

Everyone wants to do good, but many ways of doing good are ineffective or actively harmful. The Effective Altruism movement arose out of a desire to make sure that attempts to do good actually work.

This led to many ideas like the following:
- When choosing what to fund or work on, we shouldn't go for what's most personal or accessible to us.
- We should focus on problems that are important, neglected, and tractable (which we can actually do something about).
- We should evaluate the work that charities do, and value transparency and good evidence.
