Composition: Outer Layer: 100% RPET Polyester; Lining: 100% RPET Satin
Our RPET polyester is from postconsumer plastic bottles, processed through a mechanical, not chemical, process and spun into yarn in Italy - all traceable. The material is super soft, 100% recycled, anti-UV, fast drying, antibacterial and hypoallergenic, certified by GRS (Global Recycle Standards by Textile Exchange) and Oeko Tex. RPET requires significantly less energy, releases 65% less carbon dioxide and requires 90% less water than normal polyester. All PET used is rescued from the waters of the world and are Global Recycle Standard Certified. Read more about our RPET here.
Our RPET is made from 100% recycled post-consumer PET bottles fished out from waters across the world. The RPET is produced through a chemical-free process and using a waterless dying technique, making our unique fabrication antibacterial and hypoallergenic.
