Recycled polyester is made from all kinds of plastic waste materials, such as old plastic bottles, bags, industrial waste, discarded textiles, and everything like this.

To make recycled polyester, discarded plastics are collected, sorted, chopped, washed, and melted before being made into small polyester chips and granules.

These chips and granules are melted and spun to make filaments of recycled fibers. These fibers can later be used to make a range of textile products, such as clothing fabrics, advertising fabrics, and digital printing textiles.

The Oeko Tex100 Standard means that the materials must be free from chemicals, substances and compositions that could do harm to human health or the natural environment.

What are the key benefits and advantages of GRS-certified recycled polyester?

There are many benefits and advantages to using recycled polyester to make clothing items and advertising textiles. Recycled polyester is durable and also affordable, making it a cost-effective option for customers.

How does recycled polyester work to help the environment?

For a long time, plastic waste continues to be the main problem for our environment, and unfortunately, plastic packages and used textiles are large contributors to plastic pollution. That is one of the key reasons why more and more customers are making the switch to textiles made of recycled polyester.

By relying on recycled plastic for manufacturing, recycled polyester plays a very important role in beginning to reduce the environmental impact of the advertising and printing industry, get rid of waste from the environment instead of adding it.

Manufacturing recycled polyester does not need the use of crude oil, refinery, or chemical extraction, which is required to produce other virgin polyester materials. As a result, producing recycled polyester items need much less oil, water, and energy.

This means that the production processes are able to obviously reduce waste and greenhouse gas which are very harmful to the environment.
