Our Promise To A Greener Future
Global Recycled Standard Certified
Recycling PET comes mainly from plastic bottles which are collect. After the plastic is collected, the plastic goes through a selection process and then gets crushed, to then become thread to prepare itself for the final step which is making into recycled fabric.
Fabric recycled PET have the same technical performance performance than the virgin polyester but with a lower environmental impact. Recycled polyester doesn’t require the same energy for manufacturing and therefore the use of petrol and the Co2 emissions are reduced. By consuming PET recycled products you collaborate with a Re-consum and reduces the aggression to the environment.
