They offer a selection of GRS-certified sustainable fabrics
The following are commonly selected materials.
Recycled polyester(rPET)
Now recognized as the future of sustainable, low-carbon textile production, RPET fabric, also known as PET or PETE bottle fabric, is a new type of “green” eco-friendly fabric made from the yarn of recycled plastic bottles.
Just 1 ton of recycled RPET yarn is equivalent to nearly 70,000 plastic bottles.
Recycled nylon
Recycled nylon is made from nylon waste from products that have already been made, sold, used, and then discarded by consumers.
It can also be made from the waste left over from the processes that make nylon into a product.
Recycled cotton
Recycled cotton is primarily made from pre-consumer cotton, which is excess textile waste from clothing production.
It is less commonly made from post-consumer cotton, which is textile waste discarded by consumers, such as used clothing.
This also includes custom Eco-Friendly Packaging
We understand that our customers are concerned about reducing their carbon footprint. That’s why we offer reusable, recyclable, and biodegradable packaging to help them manage waste responsibly and help preserve our planet.
