Recycled Fibre

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

Feedstock that already exists.

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.

Recycled Input in Place of Virgin Polyester

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
