recycling
Transparent plastic bottles for water, drinks and cosmetics are the raw material used in the production of fabrics.
Waste is segregated, cleaned, processed into granules, and then into yarns and fabrics. PET bottles are 100% recyclable. The process of recycling bottles uses less water and energy than their original production. PET reprocessing is associated with a significant reduction in CO2 emissions compared to the production of conventional polyester.
It significantly reduces the amount of waste in landfills and polyester can be processed right up to eight times!
