Our story
Finished hats and bags at the Mabhena workshop
Upcycling with purpose

Turning industrial offcuts into everyday products

As part of Sasol's upcycle initiative, we transform surplus overall material into practical, hard-wearing products, from bucket hats and cooler boxes to school shirts, masks and PPE.

It keeps usable material out of the waste stream and puts real, affordable goods into people's hands. Transformation, in every sense of the word.

At Mabhena Textile Creations we believe transformation happens outside of your comfort zone. That drives us to keep pushing our business to sustainably transform itself, and the lives of others.
