Green for Planet
In November 2024, Hang Yick and Well Born took the lead in an impactful venture combining sustainability with social responsibility. In collaboration with Hanin Group and its ESG-focused brand, ESG School HK, Hang Yick and Well Born repurposed 7,000 used uniforms into 400 special eco jackets for students at Mary Rose School in honour of its 55th anniversary. Inspired by ESG School HK’s ethos of eco-friendly school attire, incorporating innovative BioNTex™ antimicrobial coating techniques, Hang Yick and Well Born facilitated this distinctive partnership to convert old uniforms into fresh products, effectively showcasing the potential of resource renewal.
Expanding on the initiative’s influence, the new jackets were unveiled at the We CAN! ESG Christmas event, where Mary Rose School students proudly wore them while showcasing their talents with handmade instruments. This memorable occasion signified more than just a material evolution - it signified the rejuvenation of resources, transforming discarded items into valuable, sustainable creations.
