United Repair Centre (URC) and Nikwax are delighted to announce a new partnership to promote ‘care and repair’.

Committed to the principles of circularity and inclusion, United Repair Centre is a pioneering social enterprise providing B2B clothing life-extension solutions for global brands. United Repair Centre delivers high-quality repair services to a number of leading outdoor brands, while providing employment opportunities to newcomers, young adults, and other job seekers.
URC will be using Nikwax products as part of their service to restore the performance of garments such as waterproofs and down clothing. Nikwax are world leaders in innovative, PFAS-free product solutions and systems, creating outstanding aftercare for outdoor gear. The leading theme for this collaboration is that of ‘care & repair’ whilst continuing to be environmentally responsible. URC’s team of skilled tailor and repair experts, with years of experience, operate from their original Amsterdam hub and freshly launched facility in London.  The collaboration will emphasise the importance of maintenance for longevity but also aligns with both companies commitment to durability and quality.

"Cleaning and reproofing outerwear is a logical extension of our repair service to help people enjoy their clothing longer. Nikwax's product and company values align perfectly with ours." Paul Kerssens, COO URC

Chris Ward, Commercial Director of Nikwax said “The partnership with United Repair Centre is a perfect match. Together we will help more people to extend the life of their gear and keep more out of landfill.”
