Recycled Polyester (rPET) gives us the possibility to create lightweight designs that dry quickly. While working with it, we avoid using petroleum, which is a raw and nonrenewable source of material. Most of rPET comes from recycled plastic bottles, which means we are turning waste into new products — while reducing greenhouse gas emissions and water usage for manufacturing.
For the Spring 2021 season, 88% of our polyester fabrics are made with recycled polyester. As a result, we reduced our CO2 emissions by 14% compared to virgin polyester fabrics.
