15. Sep 2010 - You may have missed it, as it a not-so-new variation of good-old KLM blue, but the airline has recently introduced new uniforms for its flight attendants. It leads to the question what to do with the old uniforms. It was company practice to burn the used uniforms to prevent abuse and fraud, but KLM has decided to change its policy and will recycle the old uniform in an effort to contribute to a better, cleaner environment. The old uniforms will be shredded by special machines and the remaining thread will be used to produce new products. Peter Bos from Texterium, the company responsible for the recycling, explains that KLM will have bags and slippers made from the old uniforms. In addition, the process will also create jobs for a few dozens jobs. So, good for KLM!
