Material technology profile
Reducing petrochemical feedstock by remaking recovered material into fibre. Every fabric states its exact content, from 37% to 100% — no vague wording standing in for a number

How it works
Polyester and nylon are normally refined from crude oil. Recycled fibre starts from material that already exists instead: recovered bottle flake or waste yarn is cleaned, melted and re-extruded into filament ready to be woven, while recycled nylon comes largely from discarded fishing nets and process waste. Once re-extruded, the fibre matches virgin material in strength, dyeing and hand — what differs is where the feedstock came from, not how the fabric performs. Content percentage is the one verifiable fact, so every fabric states its own.

Evidence-led proof points explain what this material technology delivers. Values depend on construction and verified testing.
Once re-extruded, recycled fibre matches virgin material in strength, dyeing and hand.
The yarn is made from reclaimed PET bottles and post-industrial polyester waste rather than newly extracted petroleum feedstock. Hand and physical performance match virgin polyester; what changes is where the raw material comes from — the most direct material-level choice a brand can make, and the easiest one to explain to the end consumer
