GIVING MILITARY TEXTILES A NEW PURPOSE
FROM DEFENCE TO DESIGN
Operation Upcycle is a national initiative turning surplus military textiles into sustainable, contemporary fashion with purpose. Bringing together Ramco UK, UK fashion students, His Majesty’s Prison Service, and veterans’ charities, we’re creating a circular fashion model that benefits people, the planet, and the Armed Forces community.
