RECYCLED
Our supplier holds the distinction of being the pioneer company in INDIA to achieve OBP Certification for our line of ocean recycled polyester products. This esteemed certification, known as the OBP Certification, is the outcome of a collaborative effort between the NGO Zero Plastic Oceans and the certification group Control Union. It serves the vital purpose of safeguarding our oceans against the persistent influx of Ocean Bound Plastic (OBP) originating from onshore sources.
Our our manufacturing partner a well-known entity in the textile sector, was founded in 2006 as India’s third PET Recycling Plant. Its mission: to create Polyester Staple Fibres (PSF) and Polyester Filament Yarns through the transformation of post-consumer PET bottles, contributing to both environmental and industrial advancement.
Products made from RPET polyester exhibit a carbon footprint 75% smaller than that of conventional polyester items.
RPET polyester yarn eliminates the need for a finite resource, such as oil, contributing to a more sustainable Earth.
The production of recycled polyester consumes up to 20% less water during the manufacturing process.
During production, RPET utilizes 60% less energy than virgin fibers.
In 2012, a mere 7% of the plastic produced was reclaimed for recycling purposes. There is a significant need for further progress in this regard.
By recycling 1 ton of PET containers, nearly 5.7 square meters of landfill area is preserved.
