An ICON-ic partnership. Three years in the making.

Together, we’ve shown how procurement can create meaningful social and environmental impact.

✔️ 2,500+ locally made garments produced in Melbourne
✔️ More than 420kg of textile waste diverted from landfill through our recycled-first vest design
✔️ An estimated 1,650+ hours of meaningful employment for people facing barriers to work
✔️ Ongoing investment in vocational training, sustainable employment and Australia’s local garment manufacturing industry

As a social enterprise, every order helps create opportunities, build skills and strengthen local manufacturing.

We’re proud to be national supplier of locally made hi-vis vests and grateful for a partnership that continues to create impact across projects nationwide.

Here’s to the next chapter. 🧵🦺

🎧 Upcycling ASMR 🎧

That old banner? We want it.

That construction mesh? We want it.

That event signage sitting in storage? We definitely want it.

If you’ve got vinyl banners, gawk mesh, building wraps, fence mesh or promotional signage ready for retirement, send it our way.

We’ll help turn yesterday’s campaign into tomorrow’s merch.

♻️ Less landfill. More circularity.

07/05/2026

Our customers just need something that works, they told us:
“We need an easy way to collect used uniforms.”

So we asked a better question:
What if the solution could solve another waste problem too?

We took gawk mesh banners (a material that can’t easily be recycled)
and upcycled them into heavy-duty collection bags ♻️

✔️ Fits perfectly inside our bins
✔️ Reinforced for heavy loads
✔️ Big handles = easy lift
✔️ Drawstring closure = simple + secure

Now used across the country to move large volumes of textiles,these bags are built to be reused again and again. Reducing the need for single-use plastic bags.

A simple bag.
Made from waste.
Used over and over again.

That’s circularity.

Need a better way to collect uniforms?

It’s Fashion Revolution Week (22–28 April 2026), Day 2 is about building bridges.

For us, that starts with full transparency.

This is George (Cutting & Sampling), Maca (Operations Manager) and Pla (Production Assistant & QC).

The people behind your PPE.
Your uniforms.
Your workwear.

At a time when businesses are being asked to meet modern slavery obligations, knowing who made your uniforms matters more than ever.

They are part of the team behind the PPE, uniforms and workwear we produce locally with visibility at every stage of the process.

Today marks the start of Fashion Revolution Week (22–28 April 2026) and it also coincides with Earth Day 🌏

We wanted to highlight circularity. Every Assembled Threads safety vest is made using recycled fabrics and trims, and is made locally and ethically.

But what happens at the end of its life?�We collect, sort, repair and debrand uniforms for reuse or recycling, keeping textiles out of landfill.

Because what happens after use matters just as much as how it’s made ♻️

A small switch, a better choice 🌱

We love working with , delivering another order of lanyards. Continuing their choice of a more sustainable alternative, bamboo, instead of the standard polyester.

Why bamboo?
✔️ Fast-growing, renewable resource
✔️ Uses less water
✔️ Less reliance on fossil fuels

Proof that even the smallest details can have a lighter footprint.

A big shoutout to Dexus for their continued support 🙌

We’ve just completed our third order for Dexus, transforming their used vinyl banners into durable one-of-a-kind tote bags.

Repeat orders like this are more than just business as usual. They show a real commitment to doing things differently by choosing circular solutions and backing them again and again.

Proud to keep giving these materials a second life and working with partners who are in it for the long run.

We’re taking a moment to celebrate the incredible women who make up the Assembled Threads team.

Founded by a woman, led by women, and powered by a team, women and men alike, who support and lift each other every day.

At the heart of our vision are the women who make our clothes. Across the world, women represent the majority of the garment workforce.

In Australia, the industry has long created important employment opportunities for women, particularly migrant and refugee women whose skills, craftsmanship and experience keep this trade alive.

At Assembled Threads, we’re proud to celebrate that talent within our own team.

As one of our team members shared:
“It feels like a family when I come to work.”

Over the weekend, the world marked International Women’s Day and this year’s theme, , reminds us how important it is to continue building workplaces where women’s skills, leadership and contributions are recognised and valued.
Today and every day, we celebrate the craftsmanship, resilience and community that make our team so special.
