Corrimal Alterations & Repairs Sustainability Actions

Repairs to extend garment life

Corrimal Alterations & Repairs focuses on fixing clothes and other fabric items so people can keep using them for longer. Its services include zip replacement, hem work, and alterations for men’s, women’s, and children’s clothing. It also repairs items like wetsuits, curtains, leather goods, wedding wear, school uniforms, and custom pieces. This kind of work can reduce waste because it helps avoid throwing away items that still have value.

Serving the local region since 1980

The business says it has been open since 1980 and has served the Wollongong, Corrimal, Shellharbour, Dapto, Thirroul, Fairy Meadow, and Albion Park areas for more than three decades. Keeping a local repair service running for that long can support reuse and reduce the need to replace clothing as often. The company presents this as part of its customer service, but the sustainability benefit comes from repair and reuse rather than from a formal environmental program.

Making masks from cotton

The website says the business sold adult and children’s face masks made from 100% cotton, with three layers of material, a nose wire, and elastic straps. Cotton is a natural fibre, but the source does not explain where the cotton came from, how it was grown, or whether the masks were certified in any way. This is a product detail rather than a broader sustainability policy, but it does show the business offering a reusable fabric item instead of a single-use alternative.
