The plastic bottles are pelleted, cleaned and made into
granulate and finally into fibres to weave new material
from.
Not only does the process of recycling plastic bottles ensure
less plastic end up in nature, but it also means we require
fewer ressources than it takes to produce new (”virgin) poly-
ester fabric:
The CO2 emissions are reduced by 50%
Water reduction of 70%
Energy consumption reduced by 70%
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Martindale: 90,000 - 100,000
Pilling Resistance: 3-4
Colour fastness to light: 5
