Environmental Impact Reporting for Textile Reuse
If you sell secondhand clothing and want to know — and show — what that means for the planet, ReuseScan is for you.
Turn your sales data into a clear, structured environmental impact report — built on peer-reviewed emission factors, traceable to published sources, ready to use.
No complex setup. Just your data — we handle the rest.
Secondhand is booming.
Impact reporting isn't.
Vintage shops, kilo stores, and upcycling designers are doing something genuinely valuable — extending the life of garments, reducing new production demand, and keeping textiles in circulation. The environmental benefit is real. But when it's time to apply for a grant, respond to an EPR framework, or simply explain your impact to a brand partner — most operators have nothing structured to show. Rough estimates. Spreadsheets. Gut feelings. That's not a credibility problem. That's a reporting gap.
The EU Textile EPR Directive is in force. National schemes are coming. Operators who can document their impact will be in a stronger position — for funding, for compliance, and for the conversations that matter.
Your impact, calculated.
Structured. Ready to use.
ReuseScan is a data formatting and reporting service built specifically for textile reuse operators. You share your declared weight data — the kilograms you process and sell. We do the rest.
Using RS-METH-001 v1.0 and peer-reviewed emission factors from EEA, WRAP, and EU PEFCR, we calculate your environmental impact across 10 metrics and three scenarios: conservative, standard, and optimistic.
The result is a structured PDF report — every figure traceable, every assumption disclosed. Something you can attach to a grant application, hand to an EPR officer, or share on your website with confidence.
Model-based calculations. Declared operator data.
Disclosed assumptions. Traceable to published sources.
ReuseScan is designed to support reporting and documentation workflows — including EPR-related contexts — but is not a legal compliance certification. It's about making the environmental value of reuse visible, so more operators can grow, more funders can invest, and the secondhand sector gets the recognition it deserves.
Methodology based on data from
Emission factors sourced from peer-reviewed publications. All sources publicly available.
Simple to start.
Serious in output.
Share your data
You tell us what you processed — kilograms sold, redirected, or transformed — for the reporting period. A simple template is all it takes. No technical systems required.
We calculate your impact
ReuseScan processes your data through our methodology, applying standardised displacement scenarios and peer-reviewed emission factors. CO₂ avoided, water saved, energy preserved — across 10 environmental metrics, calculated transparently.
You receive your report
A structured PDF impact report lands in your inbox. Clear figures, full methodology references, scenario breakdowns. Ready to submit, publish, or archive — exactly as it is.
No jargon to decode. No methodology to explain yourself. Just a report that does the talking.

Built by an engineer who believes data should serve the planet.
I'm Veronika Poshtarenko — environmental data engineer and MSc researcher at the intersection of textile reuse and EU environmental reporting. I built ReuseScan because I kept seeing the same problem: operators doing real, valuable work with no standardized way to document it. The ReuseScan methodology was developed to address that gap. Every report is built on declared operator data, published emission factors, and fully disclosed assumptions — traceable to peer-reviewed sources.
Common questions
A structured PDF document presenting model-based environmental impact calculations for your reuse activity — covering metrics such as CO₂ avoided, water saved, and energy preserved. Figures are derived from declared operator data, published emission factors from EEA, WRAP, and EU PEFCR, and disclosed assumptions.
Operators typically provide declared weight-based or activity-based input data depending on the reporting scope — for example, kilograms processed and sold during the reporting period. A simple intake template is provided.
Currently Belgium and the Netherlands. Expanding to France in 2026.
Reports are typically delivered within 5 business days of receiving your completed data intake.
ReuseScan is designed to support EPR-related reporting and documentation workflows, but it is not a legal compliance certification. Scheme-specific requirements set by national EPR authorities still apply.
Contact us for pricing. Pilot assessments are currently available for qualifying operators in Belgium and the Netherlands.
